You need to check on kernel.org for patch updates.
This was resolved with patch
autofs-5.0.5-dont-use-master_lex_destroy-to-clear-parse-buffer.patch

Since the patch changes the CHANGELOG file and there are several other
patches before it in patch_order-5.0.5 you will get a rejection unless
you also apply the previous patches. I recommend applying all the
current 5.0.5 patches (as you would expect).
