Perhaps yes -- it's randconfig boot test and the .config does include
CONFIG_LNET_SELFTEST:

        CONFIG_LNET=y
        CONFIG_LNET_MAX_PAYLOAD=1048576
==>     CONFIG_LNET_SELFTEST=y
        CONFIG_LNET_XPRT_IB=y

>Is this a UMP setup?

Yes, .config has:

        # CONFIG_SMP is not set

So it looks your fixup patch is not for this case? Anyway the
reproduce-* script attached in the previous email should be fairly
straightforward to try out for reproducing the bug.

Thanks,
