Don't think it's .config related, hit it on my test box and then in my
vm as well. It's likely due to batched allocations, would be my guess.
I can start/halt the vm fine with just a boot, but if I do:

$ ~/git/fio/t/io_uring -p1 -d128 -b512 -s32 -c32 -F1 -B1 -R0 -X1 -P1 /dev/nvme0n1

for just a brief moment, nvme0 will hang on shutdown.
