Sorry got confused a bit here..

Which patch are you taking about here ? As you replied below my
message, I believe that you are talking about the 3 patches that were
posted in this series. But the rest of your comment looks like the
fourth fixup patch that Sergey shared :)

So, the fixup patch doesn't fix any issues in my case, to make it
clear. I still have my system hanging somewhere.
