Spoke too soon, this also affects vanilla f31.

Comment 5 Chris Murphy 2019-09-23 20:44:40 UTC
Could be a dup of bug 1745766.

Possible related upstream bugs, in particular the first which directly refers to 
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204151
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204153

I'm not sure at what point this is a legitimate complaint to ask for a revert for whatever caused the regression. Is anyone else seeing performance regressions coinciding with these splats? I'm seeing 8x performance reduction consistently on 5.3.0 kernel, but only intermittantly on 5.2.x kernel, and no regression at all with 5.1.x. So I guess it's complicated.

> Could be a dup of bug 1745766.

Nope, there were two distinct problems. One was fixed some time ago, this one just got a patch.

Comment 7 Chris Murphy 2019-09-24 18:04:59 UTC
I hit both bugs at the same time, first the firmware splat with this bug's complaint, and then I get the kernel backtrace in 1745766. I don't know if they're related, but the other one is definitely not fixed in either 5.2 or 5.3 series.
