Thanks again for looking at this, Bjorn!
Yes, reverting commit 26abfeed4 does in fact resolve the bug. I already
built a test kernel, noted in comment #34:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1251816/comments/34
The original bug reporter tested the kernel to confirm it fixes the bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1251816/comments/36
Would it be also possible for you to request the revert in the stable
trees, in addition to 3.14?
Thanks,
Joe
