In an off-Launchpad direct exchange, I received some direction that "You
would want to bisect the mainline kernel instead of the Ubuntu kernel."

I should say more directly that I have never done kernel bisection until
now, though I'm game for the effort.  Nonetheless, very little can be
taken for granted.

Does the above direction mean that when I get to the procedure "Commit
bisecting Ubuntu kernel versions" at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection, I should use it only as
some sort of a general guideline and switch to commit bisecting mainline
kernels?

If so, I'm not seeing how.  Still assuming that I should use git bisect,
I'm not seeing an identifiable *mainline* git repo at
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git, and alternatively I'm not seeing *git*
repos at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/.  Perhaps there
are non-Ubuntu-related mainline git repos somewhere that I should be
using.

I'm sure this is all laughably self-evident to any developer reading
this, but I'm just a somewhat experienced user trying to work in the
higher realms where bugs are fixed, so kindly indulge me.
