Hi Mohammad,

I have some bad news. The patches are not present in the current SRU
cycle and have been delayed until the next SRU cycle.

This is not unique to us and this LP bug, everyone has had the same
thing happen to them.

The reason is that the kernel team are currently spinning kernels for
the Ubuntu 18.04.4 ISO image release, which is due in the coming weeks,
and wished for a quiet SRU cycle, so it appears that they only applied
reverts to known regressions (1x USB regression) and one CVE (a CVE
related to intel 915 graphics drivers) to ensure things go smoothly with
no regressions for the 18.04.4 release.

The problem with this, is that it has delayed all queued up patches for
the bionic and the bionic 5.3 HWE kernel, and has delayed fixes being
delivered for another 3 weeks.

I know that this is frustrating, and I sincerely apologise for the
delay. I am also annoyed, since I only found out recently when I
manually examined the commits present in the current SRU cycle, and only
found 4, when there would normally be several hundred or so.

I believe things will go back to normal for the next SRU cycle, and all
queued up patches will be incorporated then. As for the timeframe, if we
look at: https://kernel.ubuntu.com/, we see a kernel update being built
by the kernel team to happen sometime next week, and the update placed
into -proposed for us to test between the 3rd and 14th of February. This
would put a release around the 17th of February, given no more delays.

Again, I apologise for the delay, and I will make sure to let you know
when the next 4.15 bionic kernel with the patches is ready to test in
-proposed.

Thanks,
Matthew
