I made to minor adaption. I added a link to the Status page to my warning in before the kernel log by feature page. And I also mentioned that at the time the page was last updated the latest kernel version was 4.7. Yes, thats some extra work to update the kernel version, but I think its beneficial to explicitely mention the kernel version the page talks about. Everyone who updates the page can update the version within a second. -- Martin
