Hello.
After a v5.13.2 massive update I encountered this:
```

```
or, in code:
```
850 if (WARN_ON_ONCE(n != segments)) {
851 if (virt_to_page(range) == ns->ctrl->discard_page)
852 clear_bit_unlock(0, &ns->ctrl->discard_page_busy);
853 else
854 kfree(range);
855 return BLK_STS_IOERR;
856 }
```
BFQ scheduler is in use.
Something similar was already fixed by a958937ff166fc60d1c3a721036f6ff41bfa2821,
but I do not have a multipath device here, it's just 2 NVMe SSDs in a soft
RAID10 with LUKS and LVM.
Any idea what this might mean? v5.13.2 brought some commit into a stable tree
that are, as I still suspect, causing unreproducible panics [1] [2].
Previously, I dropped that extra stuff from my kernel build and had no issues.
This time I also do not have any extra commits in the block layer, only those
that are in v5.13.2.
Thanks.
