As I've mentioned off list, I haven't hit the apparent race I reported
here:

	https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y1efJh11B5UQZ0Tz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

since moving to 6.2. I did hit it with both 6.0 and 6.1-rc2, but it
could very well be that something has changes that fixes (or hides) the
issue since.
