There is no rush at all since the bug that you found has existed
since 2025:

commit c6307674ed82c0c57d6e1e3408e84ac449ab8e94
Author: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@xxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Oct 7 14:20:35 2025 +0200

    mm: kvmalloc: add non-blocking support for vmalloc

Let's take the time to fix this properly.

Thanks,
