Understood.

Still work on waketorture for a test case which could trigger this
problem in a real world. My old plan is to send this out when I could
use waketorture to show this patch actually resolves some potential
bugs, but just put it ahead here in case it may help.

Will send it out with your Tested-by and Acked-by and continue to work
on waketorture.
