Note that this is ARMv8 on QEMU on an x86 host i.e. emulated. And it's
really slow as a result. Together with a bunch of debug tools including
lockdep.

Yeah, I'm having doubts, and this might be even more non-deterministic
that I thought and some 'good' could maybe be 'bad' if I had re-run
them? I don't know. One thing I can try is to make sure I run it more
than once, but I'm definitely not doing that manually, so let me try and
script something so I don't have to hand-hold the bisection overnight.

The system is so slow at this point that I can't get much out of it
either way, other than waiting and seeing if it proceeds...
