Re: Bug in Kernel 6.8.x, 6.9.x Causing Trace/Panic During Shutdown/Reboot

Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker. Top-posting
for once, to make this easily accessible to everyone.

Ilkka or Steven, what happened to this? This thread looks stalled. I
also was unsuccessful when looking for other threads related to this
report or the culprit. Did it fall through the cracks or am I missing
something here?

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
