I have noticed that with next-20210701 that one of our eMMC tests
started failing on all our ARM and ARM64 platforms and bisect is
pointing to commit 4ba3fcdde7e3 ("jbd2,ext4: add a shrinker to
release checkpointed buffers"). Today I am seeing the same failure
on the mainline.

Looking at the kernel logs I see the following crash ...
