I would suggest that this is the same problem as being reported
here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/ZOWFtqA2om0w5Vmz@fedora/

due to some kind of screwup with hash_bl_lock() getting broken on
arm64 by commit 9257959a6e5b ("locking/atomic: scripts: restructure
fallback ifdeffery").

Cheers,

Dave.
