Oops: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bugs.debian.org&#x2F;cgi-bin&#x2F;bugreport.cgi?bug=922478#72" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bugs.debian.org&#x2F;cgi-bin&#x2F;bugreport.cgi?bug=922478#72</a><p>The problem patch is in <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;deb.debian.org&#x2F;debian&#x2F;pool&#x2F;main&#x2F;l&#x2F;linux&#x2F;linux_4.9.144-3.debian.tar.xz" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;deb.debian.org&#x2F;debian&#x2F;pool&#x2F;main&#x2F;l&#x2F;linux&#x2F;linux_4.9.144...</a> (I think)<p>&quot;Commit 901e325f772f &quot;ARM: bugs: add support for per-processor bug checking&quot; added a new member to struct processor. This structure is always instantiated in built-in code and the new member is only used in built-in code. Therefore we can safely add the new member at the end instead.<p>Move it to the end and hide it from genksyms. Also hide it when building modules, to make sure they really don&#x27;t use it.&quot;

This should be made &quot;sticky&quot;, if there was this feature @HN. Strange that ci.debian.net didn&#x27;t catch this.

love this note on it: &quot;Sure, maybe. I&#x27;ve suggested kernelci as a useful thing to help here, but we really need to be testing kernels complete with all the Debian patches to...&quot;<p>so does that mean they test the kernel but not their own patches to it? seems silly :D
