Thanks for the report.

David, can you resend the regression report as plain text email (preferably
with 276e14e6c3 people and regressions@lists.linux.dev Cc'ed)? You may need to
see kernel documentation [1] for how to configure your email client to send
plain text emails. Also, include in your report details from your blog post.

Thanks.
