I downgraded it from critical to medium. It was only recently added anyway.

Can you clarify your first sentence? Should IUCV support be removed?

It's unfortunate that your last patch of exiting when no CTC/QETH
devices are present only went to the BTS and hence I never saw it. It
would also actively break the still present IUCV support, hence I
actually need some input as to why you think it's broken. And possibly a
way of checking if there actually is a possibility of using IUCV for the
VM in question.

Kind regards and thanks
