Btw, this has been happening since 5.9.
I never managed to find the time to bisect it, but it might be more
obvious to you or anyone else with deep experience of mm/percpu of
what changed.

It's triggered very frequently with long runs of fsstress on btrfs,
such as with test cases btrfs/078 and generic/476 from fstests.
It produces a trace like the following:

With 5.8 and older, I never got such failures on my test boxes.

Thanks.
