You should revert the following commit to make it work:

commit f2538f999345405f7d2e1194c0c8efa4e11f7b3a
Author: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@xxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Wed Jul 24 10:46:58 2019 +0800

    jffs2: Fix possible null-pointer dereferences in jffs2_add_frag_to_fragtree()

The revert needs to get into v5.4. Maybe Richard has forget about it ?

Regards,
Tao
