bugs/regressions: report in LKML or in bugzilla?

Hi!

I reported some regressions to bugzilla that did not receive any
attentation so far:

[Bug 23792] New: openvpn: failure to unregister tap1 device, possibly
related to some netconsole issue
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23792

[Bug 23642] New: easycap driver fails to compile in 2.6.37-rc3
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23642


A participant of a linux performance training I hold found a bug with
window scaling which did not receive any reply as well:

Bug 20312 - System freeze with multiples of 32 in
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_adv_win_scale
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20312


Is it better to report on LKML? I have the impression that bug reports
onto the mailinglist are more easily recognized.

I also find it difficult to find the right component when reporting a problem
in bugzilla. Thus reports might not go to the right persons.

Please advice.

Ciao,
