Hello Thomas,
Hope you are doing well.
This mail is regarding a regression we are seeing in our CI runs[1] on
linux-next repository.
Since the version next-20240506 [2], we are seeing the following regression
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

Details log can be found in [3].
After bisecting the tree, the following patch [4] seems to be the first "bad"
commit
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
2fd001cd36005846caa6456fff1008c6f5bae9d4 is the first bad commit
commit 2fd001cd36005846caa6456fff1008c6f5bae9d4
Author: Thomas Zimmermann [email protected]
Date: Fri Mar 29 21:32:12 2024 +0100
arch: Rename fbdev header and source files
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
We also verified that if we revert the patch the issue is not seen.
Could you please check why the patch causes this regression and provide a fix
if necessary?
Thank you.

Chaitanya
