** Description changed:

  We're seeing a very reproducible regression in the bionic kernel
  triggered by the stress-ng chdir test performed by the Ubuntu
- certification suite. Platform is a HiSilicon D05 arm64 server, but we
- don't have reason to believe it is platform specific at this time.
+ certification suite. We see this on both the HiSilicon D05 arm64 server
+ and the HiSilicon D06 arm64 server. We have been unable to reproduce on
+ other servers so far.
  
  [Test Case]
  $ sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:hardware-certification/public
  $ sudo apt install -y canonical-certification-server
  $ sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 (Obviously, this should not be your root disk!!)
  $ sudo /usr/lib/plainbox-provider-checkbox/bin/disk_stress_ng sda --base-time 
240 --really-run
  
  This test runs a series of stress-ng tests against /dev/sda, and fails
  on the "chdir" test. To speed up reproduction, reduce the test list to
  just "chdir" in the disk_stress_ng script. Attempts to reproduce this
  directly with stress-ng have failed - presumably because of other
  environment setup that this script performs (e.g. setting aio-max-nr to
  524288).
  
  Our reproduction test is to use a non-root disk because it can lead to
  corruption, and mkfs.ext4'ing the partition just before running the
  test, to get to a pristine fs state.
  
  I bisected this down to the following commit:
