What a fun read! Was the bug fixed as as a result of this investigation or was the fix already in a patch that these machines didn't have. I wasn't able to figure that out by reading the article.

It was fixed as a result of the article. Jakub opens with "About a year ago...." and closes with a link to the fix thread where he gets it accepted into the kernel back in July 2021.
