This causes a problem in 4.19.103 and 4.19-rc but not Linus's tree.

The fix-of-a-fix is posted recently here:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200214182821.337706-1-daniel.m.jordan@xxxxxxxxxx/

For 4.14, 4.9, and 4.4, I'm posting a revised version of "Remove broken queue
flushing" in each review thread. 4.14 is already up. Is this what I should be
doing?

thanks,
Daniel
