Hi! Here is my third regression report for Linux 4.8. It lists 10 regressions I'm aware of. 6 of them are new; 3 mentioned in the last report sent two weeks ago got fixed; 3 got removed for other reasons (see below).
As always: Are you aware of any other regressions? Then please let me know (simply CC regressi...@leemhuis.info). And tell me if there is anything in the report that shouldn't be there.
