This patch causes an oops when building with the gold linker:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xf000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc0971544
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

Hi Thorsten,
the ext4 problem reported here https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/5/150 an here
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/3/262 seems to me to be a regression, partly,
because my laptop with 4.7.0 was also hit by it but I didn't dug into it.
There seems to be a remedy https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/5/367

Hi! Here is my seventh regression report for Linux 4.7. It lists 9
regressions I'm currently aware of. 4 of them are new; 2 are stalled
until the reporter provides more feedback.
The report also mentions 3 regressions that were fixed since the last
report. There is also 1 I plan to remove because
