Hi Ingo,

I have a machine that seems to lock up 100% of the time when the bad
commit is used.

I started with tip/master (1bc2a3035df) and merged in my branch (this
patch set) and applied your config and it locks up in different places.
I booted it 4 times, and it locked up 4 times.

Then I tried your config against my branch, and I booted it 10 times
without failure.  Can you crash it with just my branch?

I then tried it against just tip/master, and it again locked up the two
times I booted it.

I then looked at the merge you did with Linus's branch:

c7f46b7aa4ae5cbef32eb5e016512a14f936affa

Checked that out, and booted it twice with your config, and it booted
without failure both times.

I'm currently running a ktest git bisect and will let it run over night.
As building a allyesconfig takes a bit of time. I'm hoping that it will
be done by tomorrow.
