Hi,
I hit this while I was testing 4.5-rc1 with randconfig during merger period.
And now I noticed that it was fixed after Linus merged akpm branch.
commit eae21770b4fed5597623aad0d618190fa60426ff
Merge: e9f57eb 9f273c2
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Jan 21 12:32:08 2016 -0800
Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)
Try one commit before this (commit e9f57ebcba563e0cd532926cab83c92bb4d79360 )
DOES have an issue.
So I believe it was fixed for now.
Thanks
Masanari
