This is the upstream bugzilla, the issue is fixed upstream, case closed.

For backports, we'd need to know *which* commit fixed the issue. Here we have
no clue. If you come up with a reverse bisect indicating which commit fixed the
issue upstream, and if the fix is small enough, we can request the stable
kernel maintainers to backport the fix.

Otherwise, you can file a bug against your distro.
