I've only been able to reproduce this using the disk image provided by syzbot.

What is happening is we are calling MADV_COLLAPSE on an empty mapping
-- which actually reaches collapse_file() -> filemap_lock_folio()
after page_cache_sync_readahead() attempt. This of course fails
correctly, and I can see right before GPF that the returned pointer is
0xfffffffffffffffe, which is correctly ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). This should
be causing us to take the if (IS_ERR(folio)) {..} path .. but we
don't, and I don't know why. I haven't yet attempted to repro this
against other images. Will continue looking, but wanted to provide
some type of update -- even if it is a disappointing one -- so as to
not appear like I've disappeared.

Thanks,
Zach
