I've been running this for ~ 2 weeks.  I've only seen one issue, when
emerging mesa 10.5.6:

This trace is a bit off - the path to fpu__activate_stopped from
elf_core_dump looks like:

fpu__activate_stopped
xfgregs_get
fill_thread_core_info
fill_note_info
elf_core_dump

It looks like the WARN_ON_FPU there is just invalid?  If we're
dumping, we have a valid case for curr == target.

I can reproduce this and I have the coredump, but I have no hope in
creating a test case out of this.

yours,
Bobby
