The cleanup for the yfs_store_opaque_acl2_operation calls the wrong function to destroy the ACL content buffer. It's an afs_acl struct, not a yfs_acl struct - and the free function for latter may pass invalid pointers to kfree(). Fix this by using the afs_acl_put() function. The yfs_acl_put() function is then no longer used and can be removed. general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x7ebde00000000: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI ...
