There is no public link, sorry, there was a report that the backport of
these two commits to the stable trees caused a oops at boot time, not a
lockdep splat :(

I think it is only confined to the LTS branches right now, and have told
the person who reported it to let everyone here know if it is an issue
in 6.6 and newer (that's where these commits came from.)

So I'm treating this as a "something went wrong with the backport so
let's revert them" for now, until I hear differently.
