But since this problem did not occur for 3.5 hours on next-20180806 (when this problem was occurring once per 60-90 minutes), the reproducer might not be working as intended due to "kernfs, sysfs, cgroup, intel_rdt: Support fs_context" or something... ./kernel/cgroup/cgroup-internal.h | 3 ./kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c | 211 ./kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c | 81
