Thx for working on this.

Would be good to have Reported-by and Link tags for any reports about
the issue; I'm aware of the following two, maybe there were more:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217252
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2180107

And a Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 5.15.x would likely be good as
well, as the culprit was backported.

But I write for a different reason: how urgent is this fix? Is this
"just" fixing a kernel warning, or do users notice this as some apps
crash? The bugzilla.redhat.com ticket's subject indicates it's the
latter; and I think I saw someone else mentioning that this leads to
crashes, but maybe I'm mixing things up.

Because if this fixes a crash, it afaics would be good to get this fixed
rather sooner than later in mainline, so that it can be fixed in stable
as well.
