So weird, definitely I can trigger this warning, but it's not reproducible 
with the fuzzer or with manually trying things.  I'm not really sure how 
that can happen.  

Is it possible that two processes might try to update the preds 
linked-list for an event's filter simultaneously?  So this might be a 
hard-to-trigger race condition?  But I don't think the fuzzer actually 
ever has two threads trying to do ioctl at the same time.  hmmm.
