The regression found during testing is due to a small race between
creating a file and expanding it's size using ftruncate the memory
mapping of the data.  In some cases, with slow backing store on slow
devices and lack of sync'd data, the mapping will trip a SIGBUS because
there is no file data to back the mapping.  This issue has been in
stress-ng for a while and has been found in the regression testing.
This has been fixed, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
