We ended up putting this in the 4.14 rebase and there were a few issues
reported[0][1] on i686 and x86_64 so I've set it back to 0 on all arches
in F27 and F26. Hans, do you want to leave in on in Rawhide and see if
we can come up with some fixes or should I switch it to 0 there as well?
I would like to keep this as is for F28/rawhide, assuming that you've
made the change to only enable this on x86_64 there. IOW I think we
should fix:
By disabling the power_saving / setting the option to 0 on i686,
those machines are so old that I don't want to spend too much
effort there, also the reported symptoms
And look further into fixing this for x86_64 for F28+.
I've just send a mail about fixing this to the alsa-devs,
and I've put you (Jeremy) in the Cc.
Regards,
Hans
