That's what I'd been using for testing.

Now, that smells like a different bug - see if commit ab8f2c from -next
helps with that one.

Anyway, I think I see what's going on; moreover, I have a kinda-sorta

to backport and I'd prefer to look for alternative solutions before going
for that one.  Hopefully I'll have something postable by tomorrow morning...
