It's not a regression *recently* at least, I still can reproduce this bug on
linux v5.16.

But I found it's related with someone kernel configuration (sorry I haven't
figured out which one config is). I've upload two kernel config files, one[1]
can build a kernel which reproduce this bug, the other[2] can't. Hope that
helps.

Thanks,
Zorro
