Or, an earlier version of 5.4-stable?  Nothing in the changelog for 5.4.41
looks related to this issue.  There was an arm specific hugetlb change
"arm64: hugetlb: avoid potential NULL dereference", but that is pretty
straight forward.

I'm guessing this may not reproduce easily.  To help reproduce, you could
change the
#define FALLOCATE_ITERATIONS 100000
in .../libhugetlbfs/tests/fallocate_stress.c to a larger number to force
the stress test to run longer.
