This looks like the behavior of a 32-bit task using
ROBUST_LIST_64BIT is different on native 32-bit kernels
compared to running on compat mode.

Assuming we want them to behave the same way, did you intend
ROBUST_LIST_64BIT to refer to 64-bit pointers on 32-bit
tasks, or should they use normal word-size pointers?

Oh right, I haven't covered that indeed. I think I would need to have something like:

static void exit_robust_list_64()
static void exit_robust_list_32()

And then each function would use explicit sizes for pointers. Also, I would rewrite the conditions to make that every combination of 64/32bit kernel/app calls the appropriated function.

Something like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
	if (unlikely(tsk->robust_list)) {
		exit_robust_list_64bit(tsk, tsk->robust_list);
		tsk->robust_list = NULL;
	}
#else
	if (unlikely(tsk->robust_list)) {
		exit_robust_list_32bit(tsk, tsk->robust_list);
		tsk->robust_list = NULL;
	}
#endif

#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
	if (unlikely(tsk->compat_robust_list)) {
		exit_robust_32bit(tsk, tsk->compat_robust_list);
		tsk->compat_robust_list = NULL;
	}
#endif

	/* Simplified */
	list_for_each_entry_safe(curr, n, list2, list) {
		if (curr->list_type == ROBUST_LIST_64BIT)
			exit_robust_list_64bit(tsk, curr->head);
		else if (curr->list_type == ROBUST_LIST_32BIT)
			exit_robust_list_32bit(tsk, curr->head);
	}
