And here[1] are a series of patches to bisect. They should all apply against 5.1.22. I hope those are not famous last words. The idea is to test one then reverse-apply it and apply the next. Since the changes should mainly affect a small part of the overall code I hope that rebuilds after applying new patches will not be too long. The patches have revision numbers in their name. (Do you know the principle of bisecting, as in always testing the revision in the middle between the last known-good revision and the first known-bad one?)
