First of all, let me apologize for the delay in response. I am just now
getting back online after a week long vacation, which was definitely
poorly timed with the merge window :/
Unfortunately, with this series applied on top of commit e8bc52cb8df8
("Merge tag 'driver-core-6.1-rc1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core") as
indicated by the base commit information at the bottom of the cover
letter, I can still reproduce the original crash I reported. What is
even more odd is that I should be using the exact same tool versions
that Günther is, as I am also using Arch Linux as my distribution.
I have attached the exact .config that the build system produced after
my build, just in case there is something else in our environment that
could be causing difficulties in reproducing.
For what it is worth, I can reproduce this in a fresh Arch Linux
container, which should hopefully remove most environment concerns.

I am not sure what else I can provide in order to reproduce this but I
am happy to do whatever is needed to get to the bottom of this.
