I suspect it is this one:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=90201351a862182bdabfc1ad1c97b1e1b6ed5931

Can you test the kernel with that patch (i.e. the revert) on top
applied and see if this resolves your problem?

If so it might be a duplicate of #1151097 and would merge both bugs
later.

Salvatore
