Works for me. So:

  Reported-and-tested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>

but I don't think I'll apply this to my tree now, since it's largely
harmless, and we're already going to do an rc8 and I worry that it
will end up showing something else. But it probably would be good to
queue for the x86 tree for 4.9
