Re: Oops in current tree in i2c

Hi everyone,

This buggy i2c patch (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/27/248) has
just landed in stable 4.19.36 without the appropriate fix, causing
oops on boot on many machines. For example we're experiencing this
issue with the NixOS distribution
(https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/60126). I am currently trying
the fix (https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b59dfdaef173677b0b7e10f375226c0a1114fd20)
and will report if fixes the crash.

Best regards,
Ambroz Bizjak
