Another report of the issue (different call-flow, but the same error
at "shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp") at :
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/6bb8c25c-cdcf-8bca-3db2-9871a90d518f@xxxxxxxxx/T/#m52d98b6bdb05764524a118b15cec048b34e5ca76

with a tentative approval for the patch :
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/6bb8c25c-cdcf-8bca-3db2-9871a90d518f@xxxxxxxxx/T/#m24c2888a879d428cde5b34c43838301de544eb7e


Thanks and Regards,
