Did a quick check and noticed a fix for that change was recently mainlined as f72f4312d43883 ("bcache: replace a mistaken IS_ERR() by IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in btree_gc_coalesce()") [v6.7-rc2-post]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231118163852.9692-1-colyli@xxxxxxx/ It is expected to soon be interegrated into a 6.1.y kernel. But maybe it's something else. I CCed the involved people, they might know. Ciao, Thorsten > to make sure the systems don't suddenly get stuck. > > 1.
