Fair enough, but that doesn't explain why your change helps. :-)
Since I can't reproduce the regression here, try this:

0. Build a kernel with the regression

1. On your client:  # trace-cmd record -e sunrpc:* -e rpcrdma:*

2. Run the cthon04 basic tests

3. ^C the trace-cmd

4. Rename trace.dat

5. Repeat steps 1-4 with stock v4.16-rc4

6. tar and gzip the .dat files and send them to me
