Heh ;) I can't understand any single word above.

So I'll give up. Previously you reported that this patch

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=147085570503588

the problem goes away. In this case the next one

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=147101858416463

could give us more info but you didn't try it so far (without other
changes).

It seems you find the root of this problem somewhere else, hopefully
you will resolve it soon.

Oleg.
