Fwd: Lexar NM790 SSDs are not recognized anymore after 6.1.50 LTS

[Bagas Sanjaya]

Hi,

I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it:

> I bought a new 4 TB Lexar NM790 and I was using kernel 6.3.13 at the time. It wasn't recognized, with these messages in dmesg:

> My other NVMe appears correctly in the nvme list though.

> I installed the 6.1.50 lts kernel from arch repositories (I can compile my own too if this would be an issue) and then the device was correctly recognized:

See Bugzilla for the full thread and proposed quirk fix.

Anyway, I'm adding this regression to be tracked by regzbot:

#regzbot introduced: v6.1.50..v6.3.13 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217863
#regzbot link: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/15xbxeo/nvme_device_not_ready_aborting_initialisation/

Thanks.
