So am I reading it right, that the probleam appears to be introduced between
v6.0 (0 failures) and v6.1-rc1 (>0 failures)? But agree that with such low
incidence, it's hard to bisect.

Yeah it looks very much like something that manifests only on i386 (perhaps
only in QEMU as well?) and never x86_64.

What might be interesting then is v6.1-rc1 with further modified config to
enabled CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. Maybe it will catch the
culprit sooner. Or maybe it will obscure the bug instead, unfortunately.

Thanks for all your effort!
