I'm sorry, I don't have a device with the newest kernel on hand. So my test is based on 4.4.145. The stack is shown below:

Maybe this issue has been fixed in the latest kernel, I have no idea about that. Though some function has been changed, but I found the calling flow doesn't change a lot in the latest kernel. Could you help me to figure out what's wrong with it?

Thanks,
