Looks to be some kind of anomaly that's not related to these patches.
I wasn't able to reproduce it again. I ran the last 16 tests (test 19 -
34) again, and they all passed. I may investigate that later, as
running without DYNAMIC_FTRACE slows the system down enough to do
strange things all over.

I'll send out the pull request then.

Thanks!
