Hi Daniel, Greg,

If it is the same or a similar crash reported here:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2021-November/330018.html
and here: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2021-November/330212.html
then the fix is already merged:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d89c0c8322ecdc9a2ec84b959b6f766be082da76
