I can't get this below "4".

I've got this now too.

Two other questions, since you can reproduce this easily:

- does it reproduce _without_ hardened usercopy? (I would assume yes,
but you'd just not get any warning until the hangs started.) If it
does reproduce without hardened usercopy, then a new bisect run could
narrow the search even more.

- does it reproduce with Linus's current tree?

What would imply missing locking, yes? Yikes. But I'd expect
use-after-free or something, or bad data, not having the pointer slip
forward?
