yeah. The thing i do is this: i create a .config.bisect and at every 
bisection step i copy it into .config and do a 'make oldconfig'.

this means that options are picked up again, even if a 'dive back into 
the past' causes a bisection point to lose a config setting.

then my guess would be on:

 89d7bb5: x86_64: add workaround for no %gs-based percpu

you might want to try your luck and revert that one alone from latest 
tip/master.
