This is being discussed in

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<CAF=yD-LWyCD4Y0aJ9O0e_CHLR+3JOeKicRRTEVCPxgw4XOcqGQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

David also previously reported this at

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197861

which has a pointer to the above thread, too. Let's discuss this in a
single thread. I have suggested a fix there.

Thanks for bisecting. Please also test the patch in the above thread
if possible.
