Hi Takashi,

The offending commit a810364a042 seems to be in v3.0-rc2 (according to git describe),

No, it's in 3.1-rc2.

% git describe --contains a810364a v3.1-rc2~4^2~47^2~88

Takashi

so is there a reason why the below is not sent to 3.0 stable tree?

 ALSA: hda - Fix a regression of the position-buffer check

 The commit a810364a0424c297242c6c66071a42f7675a5568
     ALSA: hda - Handle -1 as invalid position, too
 caused a regression on some machines that require the position-buffer
 instead of LPIB, e.g. resulting in noises with mic recording with
 PulseAudio.
