You wrote in the upstream bug that the problem was fixed for you with only
an update to mesa, which would seem to imply that this doesn't need fixing
in the kernel (despite your comment in
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/189260/comments/6).

That would have been a much more useful piece of information to post in this
bug, rather than bickering about bug status values.

I will move this bug over to mesa so that the right folks see it now,
thanks.
