This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

This second patch is required to prevent a rather serious regression where userspace applications reading from stdin can receive EAGAIN when they should not. I will try to link correspondence from the mailing list archives once they are available, but for now if you have access to the linux- console mailing list you can find discussion under the thread "Userspace break? read from STDIN returns EAGAIN if tty is "touched"". I would appreciate it if this could be examined soon as it is a regression on userspace.
