Our test in v6.1 stable is failing due to this splat too. The v6.1
stable kernel still has this splat.

This splat can be fixed by Peter's patch
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220608144516.808451191@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
, but the fix is part of a big patchset
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220608142723.103523089@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
introduced in 6.2.

Could the fixes be backported to v6.1 stable?
