WARNING: can't access registers at asm_common_interrupt

Greetings,
I observe "WARNING: can't access registers at asm_common_interrupt+0x1e/0x40"
in my kernel test system repeatedly, which is printed by unwind_next_frame() in
"arch/x86/kernel/unwind_orc.c". Syzbot already reported that [1]. Similar
warning was reported and discussed [2], but I suppose the cause is not yet
clarified.
The warning was observed with v5.10-rc2 and older tags. I bisected and found
that the commit 044d0d6de9f5 ("lockdep: Only trace IRQ edges") in v5.9-rc3
triggered the warning. Reverting that from 5.10-rc2, the warning disappeared.
May I ask comment by expertise on CC how this commit can relate to the warning?
The test condition to reproduce the warning is rather unique (blktests,
dm-linear and ZNS device emulation by QEMU). If any action is suggested for
further analysis, I'm willing to take it with my test system.
Wish this report helps.
