Hi,

I understand that people also need this patch for 16.04.3's 4.10 kernel, that 
is, in the linux-hwe kernel.
Joseph, will that fix in Zesty's kernel be automatically propagated to Xenial's 
linux-hwe or do we
need any other action for this ?
Thanks!

F.

of_node_to_nid() export to match other arches") to the Ubuntu 4.10 kernel.

Hi Canonical, any news on this bug? This is special for us, because of some 
out-of-the-three modules we need to use internally.
