Since that is just the commit that changes the version number, I'm
feeling pretty confident in saying that it looks like your bisection
must have failed.

If you end up marking something bad that wasn't (or vice versa), git
bisect will give bogus results. Sometimes it's just silly mistakes
(testing the wrong kernel versions, for example), sometimes it's
because the problem isn't 100% reproducible so that you mark a kernel
good even though it's bad (but only bad some of the time, depending on
timing or other randomness).
