No.

And something generic as the scheduler time changes ought to
trigger widely - i've booted up thousands and thousands of
random kernels with your merge in place - which kind of coverage
tends to trigger generic lockups and races.

So i'd suspect either an environment dependent bug that random
testing on a low number of specific systems cannot cover:

- build environment dependent (compiler?) bug
- hw environment dependent bug
- or sw environment dependent bug

... or a mis-bisection.

Thanks,

Ingo
