SubjectRe: [PATCH v11 8/8] vhost: use vhost_tasks for worker threads
From
[TLDR: This mail in primarily relevant for Linux regression tracking. A
change or fix related to the regression discussed in this thread was
posted or applied, but it did not use a Link: tag to point to the
report, as Linus and the documentation call for. Things happen, no
worries -- but now the regression tracking bot needs to be told manually
about the fix. See link in footer if these mails annoy you.]

#regzbot fix: f9010dbdce911ee1f1af1398a24b1f9f992e0080

BTW, if anyone cares: just checked, it fixes my suspend problem. Thx
