I checked again and found that this is a config that did produce
the issue a few weeks ago, but doesn't today for me.
I found a different config from this week and managed to reproduce
the problem on today's linux-next using both gcc-16.2 and gcc-17.0
from yesterday, so there is still a related issue that is not
fixed in gcc, even though one at least one of them was fixed.
