Not a big deal, since it needs to not just bisect into that small
series, you also need a certain amount of bad luck to then hit the
issue.

So I don't think you should rebase unless you have other reasons to do
so, but if you do, just put this commit either first, or fold it into
the commit that removes PF_KTHREAD for threads that will become user
threads.
