I've attached the three .config files here, but due to the size I
don't know if they make it to the list or your inbox. Let me
know if you get them, and if you are able to reproduce the problem.

The compiler version I used is gcc-6 (Ubuntu 6.2.0-3ubuntu11~16.04)
6.2.0 20160901, and this is on top of linux-next plus a few other
patches.
