Hi, this is your Linux kernel regression tracker.
I noticed a regression report in bugzilla.kernel.org that afaics nobody
acted upon since it was reported. That's why I decided to forward it by
mail to those that afaics should handle this.

Could somebody please take a look, especially if you're among the main
recipients of this mail and not just CCed?
Anyway, to ensure this is not forgotten I'll add it to the Linux kernel
regression tracking bot:
#regzbot introduced: 2c709e0bdad4d996ec8925b9ee6d5b97458708f1
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216320
This isn't a regression? This issue or a fix for it are already
discussed somewhere else? It was fixed already? You want to clarify when
the regression started to happen? Or point out I got the title or
something else totally wrong? Then just reply -- ideally with also
telling regzbot about it, as explained here:
https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/tracked-regression/
Reminder for developers: When fixing the issue, add 'Link:' tags
pointing to the report in bugzilla, as the kernel's documentation calls
for; above page explains why this is important for tracked regressions.
Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
P.S.: As the Linux kernel's regression tracker I deal with a lot of
reports and sometimes miss something important when writing mails like
this. If that's the case here, don't hesitate to tell me in a public
reply, it's in everyone's interest to set the public record straight.

Thanks. I don't track bugzilla, but I will respond to this ticket.
Is there a way to get automatically notified of DSA related issues?

No worries, that's not unusual (or I guess: pretty common).

I assume in theory it would be possible to create a product for this
case in bugzilla.kernel.org and then you could directly (if you become
the default assignee) or indirectly (virtual user you could then could
start to watch) be notified.
In practice that is rarely done afaik.
My plan is to discuss bugzilla.kernel.org handling next month on
kernel/maintainers summit. Maybe we decide something there to improve
things. I'd say: wait for it and continue to no track bugzilla for now,
as https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/reporting-issues.html clearly
tells people to not file bugs there, unless MAINTAINERS tells them to
(which is not the case here afaik).
Ciao, Thorsten
TWIMC: this mail is primarily send for documentation purposes and for
regzbot, my Linux kernel regression tracking bot. These mails usually
contain '#forregzbot' in the subject, to make them easy to spot and filter.
