[Bug 1772024] Re: linux 4.13.0-42.47 ADT test failure with linux 4.13.0-42.47 (nbd-smoke-test)

[Tyler Hicks]

@cascardo thanks for the debdiffs! I noticed that the nbd package is
patchless (run 'what-patch' in the source directory to check this) but
you added a patches via quilt. As much as I prefer quilt over patchless
source packages, can you change it back to patchless and apply the
patches directly to the source?

Here's a good example of how it should be done with the commit
description and origin in the changelog itself:

Sorry for the busy work :/

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  nbd-server will crash when a client connects to it, if it was started without a server name. It may also leak fds if fork fails.

  [Test Case]
  Running the server with an empty config file and an image on the command line, and then starting a local client will crash the server. After the fix, it doesn't crash anymore, and a filesystem may be created and used after that.

  [Regression Potential]
  The fix also implies a small package change, to use quilt. It has built just fine and many tests have been run on top of those packages and no failure seemed to be the result of those userspace changes, but known failures in the kernel driver.
