Hi Greg,

An error was introduced in 4.9.134 (and the other LTS branches also). This causes 18 test cases from the TAHI IPv6 test suite to fail. I added you to the mail thread about this subject a month back. It has been fixed in upstream for some time now, but not in the LTS branches. Please merge this undo-patch into the LTS branches.

I can't take a random, white-space damaged patch to a stable kernel tree without it being submitted in a format that I can apply it in at the very least :(

Also, please always cc: stable@vger.kernel.org for stable kernel things, the documentation: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html should have explained all of this, and if not, please let us know what needs to be improved there.

If you can resend this there, and mention the needed follow-on patches, I will be glad to queue it up.

thanks,
