Interesting. Wondering if we screwed something up in the rebase.

Questions:
1. Does the issue happen if you just apply only up until this patch,
or the entire series?
2. Do you see the issue in v7? Not much if at all has changed in this
part of the code from v7 -> v8 but could be something in the newer
kernel.

We tested this series after rebase heavily so it is indeed strange to
see this so late.
