Have been running 4.9.51-1 without issue today, so it seems like it
really was introduced in 4.9.65-3. Also tried a 4.13.x kernel from
stretch-backports, which seemed to have the same issue (though *maybe*
less severe)...

So I'm guessing some fix/feature was backported to 4.9 that triggers
this problem.

live well,
