Hi Ben, first thanks for your good work for Debian especially for the Linux kernel!
But with #854066 I have to disagree / argue with you. You lowered the severity to a non rc bug, but it is in my eyes. At the moment we have got a project: Linux instead of Windows on Desktops for Developers. So we switched many of our employe to Debian stretch (jessie would be too old) and I have got an eye on the daily updates. With 4.9.x one desktop (individual) does not boot at all, have to acc. it again. All other desktopts do not wake up anymore (kernel panic?) if they fall in sleep. This is rc for me, if you think not, why? Many different hardware types are affected ||
