FWIW, the similar bug was reported for the recent 6.11.x kernel on
openSUSE Tumbleweed, and this patch was confirmed to work around the
crash at boot:
  https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1231599

It'd be great if you can go ahead and merge the proper fix to the
upstream.

Let me know if you have another patch to test.  Then I can create a
test kernel package and ask the bug reporter for testing.
