Do you or Laurent has an alternative patchset to fix those issues? From
where I sit, we have a serious bug that it is already known for a while,
but nobody really tried to fix so far, except for Shuah and myself.
So, if you don't have any alternative patch ready to be merged, I'll
apply what we have later today, together with the patch that fixes cdev
livetime management:
https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/34201/
This will allow it to be tested to a broader audience and check if
the known issues will be fixed. I'll add a C/C stable, but my plan is
to not send it as a fix for 4.7. Instead, to keep the fixes on our tree
up to the next merge window, giving us ~5 weeks for testing.
As this is a Kernel only issue, it can be changed later if someone pops
up with a better approach.
Regards,
Mauro
