SubjectRe: [PATCH] gpio: Request interrupts after IRQ is initialized
From
Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker. Top-posting for once,
to make this easily accessible to everyone.

Greg, this seems to be a regression that made the news
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/u5hbk6/psa_linux_5173_on_dell_amd_laptops_might_cause/

That made me wonder "how can we get issues like this fixed really
quickly in stable". Are you in cases like this maybe willing to drop the
backport of 5467801f1fcb quickly (in this case maybe even for the new
stable kernel versions that just were sent out as rc1) and then reapply
it later together with below fix once that was reviewed and merged to
mainline? Or is that too much of a hassle even for special case like this?

Ciao, Thorsten
