Hi Bin,

I now also re-tested the initially reported steps to reproduce the
issue:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here, I still see the problem (I was wondering if the issue has been
solved/gone by a kconfig-file modification).

Perhaps, Sebastian could check if the problem, he reported still exists...
