Considering KASAN bugs reported in the past related to find_next_bit
https://www.spinics.net/lists/alsa-devel/msg110946.html

Since you are addressing the BE arch issue, would you please
use this solution instead :-

diff --git a/drivers/bus/mhi/core/init.c b/drivers/bus/mhi/core/init.c
index 8f4cd4d..744b617 100644
--- a/drivers/bus/mhi/core/init.c
+++ b/drivers/bus/mhi/core/init.c
@@ -77,9 +77,12 @@ static const char * const mhi_pm_state_str[] = {
 
 const char *to_mhi_pm_state_str(enum mhi_pm_state state)
 {
+ int index;
 
- if (index >= ARRAY_SIZE(mhi_pm_state_str))
+ if (state)
+ index = __fls(state);
+
+ if (!state || index >= ARRAY_SIZE(mhi_pm_state_str))
  return "Invalid State";
 
  return mhi_pm_state_str[index];

Thanks,
