I have never seen a bug report for the kernel come in with that in the
subject line, sorry.  So that would be one reason why you might not find
anything.

And maybe there are no x86-specific bugs at the moment?  Try running
linux-next and see if you have any issues with any subsystem, if so, try
working on that.

good luck!
