Thanks for the report. To be sure the issue doesn't fall through the
cracks unnoticed, I'm adding it to regzbot, the Linux kernel regression
tracking bot (note: the version specified below here might not be fully
accurate):

#regzbot ^introduced v5.9..v5.15
#regzbot title amlogic boards: random kernel panics (memory corruption)
#regzbot monitor:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/40ca11f84b7cdbfb9ad2ddd480cb204a@xxxxxxxx/
#regzbot ignore-activity

This isn't a regression? This issue or a fix for it are already
discussed somewhere else? It was fixed already? You want to clarify when
the regression started to happen? Or point out I got the title or
something else totally wrong? Then just reply and tell me -- ideally
while also telling regzbot about it, as explained by the page listed in
the footer of this mail.

Developers: When fixing the issue, remember to add 'Link:' tags pointing
to the report (the parent of this mail). See page linked in footer for
details.

Ciao, Thorsten (wearing his 'the Linux kernel's regression tracker' hat)
