Hi! Here is my fourth regression report for Linux 4.8. It lists 14 regressions I'm aware of. 5 of them are new; 1 mentioned in last weeks report got fixed.
As always: Are you aware of any other regressions? Then please let me know (simply CC regressi...@leemhuis.info). And pls tell me if there is anything in the report that shouldn't be there.
