That is actually perfectly reasonable assumption to make in the absence of resources to determine the opposite, which would probably be many times the resources needed to actually fix the bug.
It’s a wild assumption to claim “All bugs in the Linux kernel are security issues”, without any backing, whoever is making that claim needs to provide evidence since the default position for any program is that there are bugs that are not security issues.
defend one out there assumption with another, i guess.
who can tell if sidewinder force feedback (11684) is a security bug or just one that affects people using old joysticks. better treat it with all the seriousness of xv just to be sure!
That’s a crazy “if”

There are lots of things the Kernel controls that can have non security related bugs, e.g. controller with the wrong mapping https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/9131f8cc2b4eaf7c08d402243429e0bfba9aa0d6
