Hopefully, this will be well received.
I however, still think the AHCI driver should be re-added in our
cloud kernel though... :/
In particular because, while it may not be all that obvious, it
takes a *very* long time for upstream changes in OpenStack to
trickle down to deployments in the wild. There are popular public
cloud providers running their service on decade-old versions of the
software. This also means their users are booting the latest Debian
images on relatively ancient host kernels and KVM versions, old
libvirt and QEMU, et cetera.
But for this particular bug the concern is with users of non-amd64
OpenStack clouds (primarily arm64 but looks like there are also
Debian genericcloud images for ppc64el), which could in theory have
different drivers selected in the kernel config anyway? Or is that
sort of divergence intentionally avoided between architectures?
