Hi again, it looks that there was missing bit in some earlier patch included in 4.9 stable kernel : https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/?h=linux-4.9.y&id=3146a32b39cd78722869bca6e839b3c59155e012
I tested with this single patch on top of 4.9.82-1+deb9u2 and I could do some heavy linux compilation without issue. The latest upstream 4.9.84 has that fix. F.
