So something's weird here - my patch should not cause a null ptr deref
here.

This looks weird too. There's no "<>" brackets denoting which byte it
was exactly where RIP pointed to when the NULL ptr happened.

Do

make fs/kernfs/dir.s

and upload dir.s and the dir.o file somewhere.

In any case, my patch shouldn't be causing this. At least I don't see
it.

I'm testing a better version of the patch and it should not cause this
thing even less.

This is the upstream kernel mailing list so those Frankenstein kernels
are all left to you.

Good luck. :-)
