Linux 6.15 Lands Fix For "3x Performance Regression" Affecting Nginx & Other Software

Linus Torvalds has merged the patch by Vlastimil Babka that takes care of the performance regression.

And thanks to AMD for speedy EPYC processors that make light work out of bisecting the Linux kernel and other large codebases.
