Cc ntfs3:
Maybe it's a problem like this:
do_new_mount
fs_context_for_mount
alloc_fs_context
ntfs_init_fs_context
sbi = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ntfs_sb_info), GFP_NOFS);
fc->s_fs_info = sbi;
vfs_get_tree
ntfs_fs_get_tree
get_tree_bdev
blkdev_get_by_path // return error and sbi->sb will be NULL
put_fs_context
ntfs_fs_free
put_ntfs
ntfs_update_mftmirr
struct super_block *sb = sbi->sb; // NULL
u32 blocksize = sb->s_blocksize; // BOOM
It's actually a ntfs3 bug which may be introduced by:

Funky. That commit seems to have nothing to do with the oops:
[ 806.257788][ T204] /dev/root: Can't open blockdev

Not a very helpful error message,a nd the KASAN comment makes little sense, but
[ 806.267540][ T204] RIP: 0010:ntfs_update_mftmirr (kbuild/src/consumer/fs/ntfs3/fsntfs.c:834)
That's
u32 blocksize = sb->s_blocksize;
and presumably with KASAN you end up getting hat odd 0xdffffc0000000003 thing.
Anyway, looks like sb is NULL, and the code is
int ntfs_update_mftmirr(struct ntfs_sb_info *sbi, int wait)
{
int err;
struct super_block *sb = sbi->sb;
u32 blocksize = sb->s_blocksize;
sector_t block1, block2;
although I have no idea how sbi->sb could be NULL.
