Hi,

fstests generic/531 triggered a panic on kernel 5.19.0-rc3 with this
patchset.

[  405.478056] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000049

	export NFS_MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o rw,relatime,vers=4.2,nconnect=8"
changes of generic/531
	max_allowable_files=$(( 1 * 1024 * 1024 / $nr_cpus / 2 ))
