I'm running the kernel with lockdep + list-debugging enabled and
I could not reproduce this (not easily at least) on a standard
Fedora 6.0.0 build without that. So maybe the parsing just manages
to write out of binds a tiny bit which just happens to hit a list_head
somewhere ... ?

Either way things look stable with d3a7051841f0 and it turns out
that Fedora already had that cherry-picked downstream in the
5.19.13 kernel which was stable for me too.

That sounds good, can you take care of submitting these to gkh ?
