Chris,

i had this error on my test system

https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/issues/1511

but i can't reliably reproduce it now (on my current kernel 5.17.0-rc2
and on debian kernel 5.15.0-3-sparc64-smp )
Tested with the following command line (for current git util-linux sources):
$ for i in {1..100}; do tests/run.sh lsfd; done | grep FAILED

^^ no failed output

I can reopen the issue above, so we could try to reproduce it.
