Kernel – 4.2.1 – Still Breaks NVIDIA?
Tried the ‘release candidate’ version of Kernel 4.2.1 (via patch, at https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/stable-review), and the GPL_only issue with NVIDIA drivers is still there… Exactly why we have to wait for Kernel 4.3 for this to be fixed is a mystery, as the simple one-line patch was proposed weeks ago, for 4.2-rc5..

Gentoo is already patching it
Applying 2710_flush-workqueue-non-GPL-availability.patch (-p1)
I expect all the Distros will have to do this, now..
