My guess is that d3a7051841f0 is a red herring. Sure, it's a warning
splat that would be nice to get fixed in v6.0, but I doubt it has
relevance to the problems you're seeing.

Cc: Ville, your thoughts?

Seems pretty vague I'm afraid. I know it's painful, but likely bisect is
the fastest way to pinpoint the issue and get at the root cause.

Also, filing a bug at [1] would help us get more attention.
