A little bit of debugging shows that bp->b_fspriv is NULL many a time
when trace_xfs_trans_read_buf(bp->b_fspriv) is called.

I do not have any idea about xfs filesystem. So, I am not sure, if it
is expected to have bp->b_fspriv = NULL at this location.

This patch fixes the issue, until we have a better fix.

What kernel did you hit this on?  What did the backtrace look like?

I've been unable to reproduce the problem so far.

Thanks,

RHELSA snap7 kernel (that's RHEL Server for ARM; 3.19-based).

Thanks for everyone's attention. Pratyush has provided a link
to the upstream patch, that we have to pull into our kernel.
