LTP hugemmap05 test case [1] could not exit itself properly and then degrade the
system performance on arm64 with linux-next (next-20190613). The bisection so
far indicates,
BAD: 30bafbc357f1 Merge remote-tracking branch 'arm64/for-next/core'
GOOD: 0c3d124a3043 Merge remote-tracking branch 'arm64-fixes/for-next/fixes'
I don't see anything obvious between those two pull requests, so I guess
something in 'arm64/for-next/core' is wrong.
