I see this splat when this patch is applied on 5.10.107 kernel:

	[  132.779332] CPU: 1 PID: 203 Comm: klogd Not tainted 5.10.107-00039-g83962808e276 #28

I could resolve it by applying this patch:

	diff --git a/mm/vmstat.c b/mm/vmstat.c
	index 80c1e0a0f094e..92fb0c08296ef 100644
	--- a/mm/vmstat.c
	+++ b/mm/vmstat.c
	@@ -957,11 +957,11 @@ void __inc_numa_state(struct zone *zone,
		u16 __percpu *p = pcp->vm_numa_stat_diff + item;
		u16 v;

	-       v = __this_cpu_inc_return(*p);
	+       v = this_cpu_inc_return(*p);

		if (unlikely(v > NUMA_STATS_THRESHOLD)) {
			zone_numa_state_add(v, zone, item);
	-               __this_cpu_write(*p, 0);
	+               this_cpu_write(*p, 0);
		}
	 }

AFAICT zone_statistics() no longer protected by the spin_lock_irqsave(), so
preemption no longer disabled.

You need to have CONFIG_NUMA and CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT enabled to reproduce
this.

HTH

Thanks!
