Bug#812487: Please ensure that https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/23/189 reaches Debian

[Wouter Verhelst <wouter@debian.org>]

Package: linux
Severity: wishlist
Control: block 796633 by -1

Hi,

This bug exists just to track progress of a prerequisite to fix #796633
(severity: important).

I submitted a kernel patch yesterday to issue a uevent upon disconnect
of an nbd device (the lkml URL in $SUBJECT contains it). This is
required in order for systemd to properly track whether an nbd device is
connected; that in turn is required for a proper systemd unit file for
nbd devices in replacement the rc.S init script; and doing so is
required as part of a release goal for stretch.

I'll keep this bug updated when/if the patch gets merged upstream.
