  Perhaps because it came from a Microsoft report. Maybe they only know of this being fixed in Windows? I would assume it’d affect all OSs but then again, I certainly do not know enough about these things to understand what’s going wrong here.

    Thanks. So zen 5 seems fine and patch for 3 and 4 will come with a newer kernel.
