Thanks, if down the road there is a fix feel free to send it to stable@ as
usual.

Thanks for the reply!
This was added in 19.11.11 and not found back then, glad you got it now.

Since this is Intel Test (you) + Intel Dev (You and the Devs you confirmed
it with) and an Intel Device I'll take your word and will revert this in
19.11.12.
There is no need to tag an -rc2 for it since you already tested the most
relevant devices/tests with that revert (and no one else saw it before or
after the change in 19.11.11).
