Right. RH is aware of this and they are working on it:

A couple of potential patches to fix the issue have been submitted by @pgreco. Centosplus kernels that include the patch (either v1 or v2) are available here:

Please test if you can.
Never mind. It was reported that neither patch fixed the problem. :(

"Update to RHEL 7.6 when available."
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

they have closed my bugzilla as a dup and i don't have access to the official bug. i guess i'll see if i can get them to open that up to me so i have something to track...

Note also that the patch will be backported to the 7.5 kernel. So, hopefully an updated kernel with the fix gets released soon.
