Thank you for your response. I discovered the aforementioned bug in
Linux kernel v6.4.16 (the latest v6.4). It appears that the fix was
not completed in the latest version of v6.4. I have also checked the
link you mentioned and saw that the issue has been fixed in v6.10. I
realize that I omitted the final jump patch in the patch v1 submitted,
and I will perfect it in patch v2. Thank you for your suggestion.
