#1485797 — Linux 4.8: Reported regressions as of Sunday, 2016-09-18

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 regressions@leemhuis.info). And pls tell me if there
is anything in the report that shouldn't be there.

Ciao, Thorsten

Actually, what Mel was working on (mapping lock contention) was not
related to the reported XFS regression. The regression was an XFS
sub-page write issue introduced by the new iomap infrastructure,
and nobody has been able to reproduce it exactly
outside of the reaim benchmark. We've reproduced other, similar
issues, and the fixes for those are queued for the 4.9 window.

Cheers,

Dave.
