Based on what we just discussed on #armlinux, testing before and after
commit 9c46929e7989 ("ARM: implement THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK for uniprocessor
systems") might be a good idea as it enables some config options that
did not get enabled earlier.

Another thing that might help is to bisect again and ensure vmap stack
config option stays disabled so issues related to vmap stack are kept
out of the way.
