Thanks for deliberating on this and the details sharing, Mimi. It could be fine if we add note in patch 2 log to mention the possible failure. With my understanding, commit/patch bisectable means it won't break compiling and block the testing. The failure you are concerned about is not a blocker, right? And people won't back port partial patches of this series. Nore sure if there's another better way we can take or detour.
