------- Comment From frede...@fr.ibm.com 2017-09-07 04:19 EDT------- 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!
