May I ask for some clarification? Which .config file am i editing after the 'makepkg -o' step?
And once in there, how do I modify the LOCALVERSION string?

Sorry if these are silly questions, this is all new for me.

I wish there were a way to check at this point whether or not I applied your patch correctly (without modifying the kernel localversion string)
I'm assuming this is not possible?

Thanks again!

Like I mentioned earlier, I'm unfortunately not too familiar with manjaro's packaging system so I'm not sure exactly where their kernel package would store the config. `find . -name ".config"` should be able to find it though.

That said, the patch has landed in manjaro ARM's linux-aarch64 repo, so you should be able to just update (and keep your APPEND) to use it: https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux-aarch64/-/commit/4ca080451cc4cb05d9937ff9ae169c2f97945e6a.

I have the old first gen debian PBP. I installed Manjaro today.
From what I'm reading here, will pacman -Syyu install this patch now?
