Tested the 6.15 RC7 on Xenial, Zesty, Fienix and Debian. Working well. But like other kernels does have the random reboot stall. Wonder if this relates to old CFE bug where it stops on reboot. Shutting down is mostly reliable from kernel.

Thanks a lot for testing the RC7. I will check the reboot of the X1000.
