    Kernel prepatch 4.9-rc3
    The 4.9-rc3 prepatch is out. "It
    turns out that the bug that we thought was due to the new virtually mapped
    stacks during the rc2 release wasn't due to that at all, but a block
    request queuing race condition. So people who turned off the new feature
    weren't actually avoiding it at all.
    " The new feature appears to be
    solid, but more testing is always welcome.
