JFYI: I added this report to the list of regressions for Linux 4.9. I'll
watch this thread for further updates on this issue to document progress
in my weekly reports. Please let me know via regressions@leemhuis.info
in case the discussion moves to a different place (bugzilla or another
mail thread for example). tia!

Current status (afaics) in my report: This looks stuck. Or was is
discussed (or even fixed) somewhere else?

Ciao, Thorsten
