posting intermediate debug results:

I did a bisect on the merge commits to identify which tree the
regression got introduced, looks like it is the merge from akpm tree -
I have not yet looked deeper.

b58a6c0b0808 Merge branch 'akpm-current/current'
---> FAIL http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/2540641

ef31288bdf44 Merge remote-tracking branch 'livepatching/for-next'
--> OK -> http://paste.ubuntu.org.cn/2540778

use systemd unfortunately)?
