That's not what that patch does. It shouldn't make any user visible changes
to DSCR or PPR.

Over syscall PPR and DSCR may change. Depending on your test case, that may
be your problem.

As mentioned before, what I thought to be a problem is<br>
something expected behaviour. So it&#39;s not a problem any<br>
more. DSCR value inside the transaction will fall back<br>
to default as kernel wont let user specified value to<br>
remain applied for a long time.<br>
