All done. I've posted the update as a new follow-up series: https://lkml.kernel.org/lkml/1566869956-7154-1-git-send-email-ilubashe@akamai.com/ rebased on your perf/core.
I've tested 336 permutations (see the new cover). In particular, I was able to reproduce the crash on perf/cap and confirm that no permutation can cause such crashes for any of the patches in the series.
