It appears from the link in the bug report that 6.5.x kernels
(sid/trixie) are not affected. Does anyone know otherwise?
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20231205122122.dfhhoaswsfscuhc3@quack3/
Is the bug likely to affect all architectures? I have a Pi bookworm
(armhf) on 6.1.63-1, with 6.1.58-1 also installed. I can probably roll
back to 6.1.54-1 if necessary.
