This came to my attention a couple days ago in a bugzilla report here:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219121

There's also 2 other recent threads in the mailing about it.

There's a fix there in the bugzilla, and I've just sent it to the mailing list.
In case you want to try it:

Thanks.
