No idea here, though I have not tried to reproduce it. This looks
like a false positive to me, which might be the result of some
missed optimization in the compiler when building with certain
options. I see in the .config that KASAN is enabled, and this sometimes
causes odd behavior like this. If it does not happen without KASAN,
maybe report it as a bug against the compiler.
