Hmm, I'm not entirely sure that that is a good bisect.
This is a fix for my stupidity in the commit you mention:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20230302174154.970746-1-conor@xxxxxxxxxx/

But the main backtrace there is not from that patch at all, I think it
is Linus' fault.
The HEAD of Linus' tree is currently 8ca09d5fa3549 ("cpumask: fix
incorrect cpumask scanning result checks") should be a fix for the
backtrace that you are seeing above.

LMK if the above two things don't fix it for you & I'll go digging
tonight.

Cheers,
Conor.
