As mentioned by users in this LP bug, the verification period of 5 days is _usually_ not enough to reproduce this problem, however, we have some datapoints that support the fix is good.
1) The fix has been first delivery in linux-azure, 3 weeks ago, and has reportedly resolved the issue for @alanjcastonguay: the issue was experienced within 4 days at the most, and hasn't happened for 2 weeks in 8 nodes (which is statistically very positive; and it helps that the fix is not specific to -azure).
2) One of the users who reported this in linux (-generic), has verified a test kernel with this fix for weeks, based upon which the fix has been submitted after linux-azure had it. The same user has verified -proposed for about a week now, and it's looking good.
3) Users in this LP bug have been running the -proposed kernel in multiple nodes for about a week now too, and haven't hit the issue yet.
On top of 1), with 2) and 3) combined, and the schedule for -proposed verification, this seems to be a reasonable compromise between results and test time.
Updating bug tags to verification done.
