With a bit of luck in time for Debian testing that is already on kernel 5.10.13 before it becomes stable.

There is already a patch that's been out to deal with the sysfs/cpuinfo inaccuracies, should be in 5.12/5.11/5.10 in the coming days.

But for most workloads, the Linux 5.10.17 performance was the same as the 5.10.16 kernel
Always good to see more testing!

Linux 5.10.17 Backports CPUFreq Patches From 5.11 - Benchmarks
Phoronix: Linux 5.10.17 Backports CPUFreq Patches From 5.11 - Benchmarks
Released yesterday was the Linux 5.10.17 LTS kernel and what makes this point release a bit more notable than usual is that it backports the CPUFreq patches from 5.11 that were used for addressing the earlier AMD performance regression on Linux 5.11 and often leading to net improvements as well over prior kernel series. The CPUFreq patches were back-ported while the AMD frequency invariance support was not, so what does the performance look like for the Linux 5.10 LTS kernel? Here are some benchmarks...
