Hi Greg,

I am not a kernel dev, nor have I ever compiled a kernel, so I don't 
think I am able to help with a git bisect to locate the offending 
commit. I am just a regular user running pre-compiled packages on my 
Arch Linux distro. But, of course I am happy to assist wherever I can.

Cheers.
Lachlan
