Thanks for the report!

Just updating a bit the metadata of the bug along, which affects as
well the kernel aimed for trixie and later.

While the next stable series updates are missing the revert it should
already be on the way for 6.15-rc5 and might cherry-pick it in advance
(depending what comes first to upload).
