I just bisected a crash in QEMU with Debian's arm64 configuration to
this change in -next as commit b40deebe7679 ("landlock: Support file
truncation"), which I was able to reproduce like so:

$ mkdir -p build/deb

$ cd build/deb

$ curl -LSsO http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-signed-arm64/linux-image-5.19.0-2-arm64_5.19.11-1_arm64.deb

$ ar x linux-image-5.19.0-2-arm64_5.19.11-1_arm64.deb

$ tar xJf data.tar.xz

$ cp boot/config-5.19.0-2-arm64 ../.config

$ cd ../..

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- O=build olddefconfig Image.gz

$ qemu-system-aarch64 \
-machine virt,gic-version=max,virtualization=true \

A rootfs is available at [1] but I don't think it should be necessary
for reproducing this. If there is any additional information I can
provide or patches I can test, I am more than happy to do so!
