Smells to me like it's just a timing issue, and that mayeb the bisect
failed because it's not 100% repeatable. Or maybe it *was* 100%
repeatable, but simply because that commit changed the timing of the
bootup scripts etc.
But yes, trying it with the revert in place is a good idea just to
make sure. And perhaps checking that kernel more than a few times to
verify just how repeatable it is.
