This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
Revert "mlx5: move affinity hints assignments to generic code"to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git%3Ba=su...
The filename of the patch is: revert-mlx5-move-affinity-hints-assignments-to-generic-code.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let stable@vger.kernel.org know about it.
This patch in its current form, breaks nvme-rdma affinity settings. I've mentioned that in the patch review and Saeed promised to send a fix for it (which I haven't seen so far).
So things are broken in Linus's tree?
Usually reverting is the safe thing to do, we should just be now back at the state the code was in before the patch, or has something else changed here?
thanks,
