Sometimes, the Linus' tree also has a bad quality. :( You'd better to keep skipping until the buggy serial patches out.

The assumption is incorrect, actually, .35-rcx is delivered before final .35 kernel. the rc version is testing kernel. In fact, git bisect is quite smart to find the next mid commitment in the tree. Could you send out the output of $git bisect log. Let's see what'd you got. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
