As Manoj already pointed out, tagging the LP bug as reported upstream
(via kerneloops) would be helpful. Is it possible to file the same bug
automatically in bugzilla.kernel.org and LP and link them?

Atleast for the kernel, the duplicate finder is relatively useless
because bugs are so HW-dependent. I am fairly certain that we prefer
people to file separate bugs that _we_ mark as duplicate.
