Yes, I wanted to know which commit fixed the issue. But I realize that at this
point it's not worth the effort: the bug was reported too long time ago and
based on comment 17, the bisect result isn't useful any more (either because
the bisect result wasn't correct in the first place or something above the
kernel fixed/hid the bug). Assuming this fixed now.
