I just spoke w/ Otavio, and it looks like we'll need to go ahead and upload w/ what we have now in order to have a new kernel in 5.0.2 d-i - and that is necessary to fix installation on some s390 machines. We can continue working on the SCHED_IDLE issue, and (as Ben suggested) provide an upload to proposed-updates for users to test/use if the fix looks good. -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
