FWIW the decoded stacktrace from my end is (my x86 GCC is a tad ancient,
but the lines seem to match):

Using that, the fail is on:
if (need_pull_dl_task(rq, prev)) {
Which is most likely explained by the above call ending up doing a
dl_prio(prev->prio);
which doesn't play well with
class->pick_next_task(rq, NULL, NULL);
Now, this is no longer an issue (I think) with the rest of Peter's series,
since the above deref is gone with
67692435c411 ("sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path")
It would be interesting to know whether LKP found this on a mainline kernel
and bisected it down, or if it stumbled on this while bisecting something
else.
