Makes me wonder again if we should start adding
CC: regressions@lists.linux.dev
to any patches that fix regressions, that way maintainers and reviewers would have something to filter for -- and I would become aware of all regression fixes in the work, too.
Ciao, Thorsten
P.S.: BTW, let me tell regzbot that Linus merged the fix for the build failure.
#regzbot fix: ba0ad6ed89f
FWIW, the one for the gcc warnings[1] Laurent mentioned elsewhere in this thread is not merged yet afaics.
