I managed to corner the bug, the termination signal on timeout was
killing the contention process with SIGKILL and this was killing the
bogo-op increment mid increment causing the internal state to be
inconsistent on the bogo-op counter. I've pushed a fix to the main repo:

    stress-lock{a|f|ofd}: terminate contention process with SIGALRM


This will be included in the next stress-ng release at the end of this month.
