Thanks for the patch. I ran the new test case and confirmed it fails. Also, I
confirmed the kernel patch noted above avoids the failure. Good.

I think the patch is good enough to apply. Said that, I will wait for the kernel
side fix patch lands on the Linus master branch to avoid confusion by the test
case failure. I think the test case number 071 will need renumbering. I will do
that modification when I apply the patch.
