I was actually the first to report it ;-)

https://lore.kernel.org/all/YXJjuWyY0h+Qaj5U@kernel.org/

and my first reaction was to send a revert the untested commit 110860541f44
("mm/secretmem: use refcount_t instead of atomic_t"). 

Anyway, this should fix it:

Subject: [PATCH] secretmem: bump initial refcount to fix refcount woes

Commit 110860541f44 ("mm/secretmem: use refcount_t instead of atomic_t")
replaced atomic_t with refcount_t but it dind't take into account that
unlike atomic_inc(), refcount_inc() presumes that "the caller already has a
reference on the object". With that, using 0 as initial count caused
warnings in the refcount code:
