[Bug 1823429] Re: linux v4.15 ftbfs on a newer host kernel (e.g. hwe)

[Brad Figg]

Dimitri,

A couple of things. First, it appears that a number of bugs are getting
spammed incorrectly with this for some unknown reason. We are looking into
why that has happened. Second, this is the same message that we've used for
years and the message does indicate, via the tags to set, which series is
to be tested. If the messages are not clear enough we are happy to make
them more clear.
