For everyone who is able to try out that test build, please remember to
remove the "mitigations=off" and "nopti" kernel command line
parameters that you've added to work around this bug. We want you to
test that kernel without using the workaround.

If you report successful results when trying the test kernel, please
include the output from the following commands:

 $ cat /proc/cmdline

 $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown

The output from those commands will help us make sure that the bug is
fixed rather than a workaround giving us false hope.

My hope is that Andrea's work on bug 1830433 ends up fixing the problems
that you all are seeing in this bug. Thanks in advance for any testing
that you can provide.
