I cannot hit it. My kernel guy says it is more probable, that the server
room burns down before that happens again. But if you send me the patch
at least i can test it on top of 4.9.

The whole disabling-cephx-sign-message thing is a test, whether i *can*
disable it, if it happens again.

I will not disable security Foo. It is simple to disable, but often it
is huge mess to enable it again.

Definitively you're right, but i sleep well in silence.
