Re: Bug#1054514: linux-image-6.1.0-13-amd64: Debian VM with qxl graphics freezes frequently

["Linux regression tracking (Thorsten Leemhuis)" <regressions@leemhuis.info>]

Hi, Thorsten here, the Linux kernel's regression tracker. Top-posting
for once, to make this easily accessible to everyone.

Gerd, it seems this regression[1] fell through the cracks. Could you
please take a look? Or is there a good reason why this can't be
addressed? Or was it dealt with and I just missed it?

[1] apparently caused by 5a838e5d5825c8 ("drm/qxl: simplify
qxl_fence_wait") [v5.13-rc1] from Gerd; for details see
https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/ZTgydqRlK6WX_b29@eldamar.lan/

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
