Hi,

your problems seem to be related to your custom kernel, I do cannot
reproduce it with the official Debian kernel (4.19.0-rc7-amd64 in
experimental).

Your compile command line contains
  -Wa,arch/x86/kernel/macros.s -Wa,-
this is something I do not see while building against the official
Debian kernels.

The issue cannot be reproduced on -rc7 because the issue started after the
4.19-rc8 tag

Also I just built the mainline kernel (4.20 at the time of speaking) and I
can still reproduce this issue

I still cannot reproduce this with 4.19.5 in experimental.
