Thanks for catching this!  My bad for not running xfstests with the inlinecrypt
mount option recently.  Can you use the correct Fixes tag:?

    Fixes: 2fb48d88e77f ("blk-crypto: use dynamic lock class for blk_crypto_profile::lock")
    Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Also, when describing the problem please try to be more specific than
"explodes".  I just get a WARN_ON.  Beyond that, presumably it just makes
lockdep not track blk_crypto_fallback_profile.lock?

Maybe add a comment:

    /* Dynamic allocation is needed because of lockdep_register_key(). */

Also, kzalloc() should be checked for failure.

Can you consider folding the following into your patch?
