Thank you very much for your rework.

I tested this on the ASUS F2A85-M PRO, and get a delay of ten seconds.

This delay has been there with v6.3-rc6-46-gde4664485abbc and some custom (printk) patches on top and merging dwmw2/parallel-6.2-rc3-v16 into it. I only tested this. I think dwmw2/parallel-6.2-v17 failed to build for me, when trying to merge it into Linus’ master version at that time. I didn’t come around to report it, and you posted your rework, so I am replying here.

I am going to try your branch directly in the next days, but just wanted to report back already.


Kind regards,

Paul
