Funky. That commit seems to have nothing to do with the oops:

Not a very helpful error message,a nd the KASAN comment makes little sense, but

> [ 806.267540][ T204] RIP: 0010:ntfs_update_mftmirr (kbuild/src/consumer/fs/ntfs3/fsntfs.c:834)

That's

        u32 blocksize = sb->s_blocksize;

and presumably with KASAN you end up getting hat odd 0xdffffc0000000003 thing.

Anyway, looks like sb is NULL, and the code is

  int ntfs_update_mftmirr(struct ntfs_sb_info *sbi, int wait)
  {
        int err;
        struct super_block *sb = sbi->sb;
        u32 blocksize = sb->s_blocksize;
        sector_t block1, block2;

although I have no idea how sbi->sb could be NULL.

Konstantin? See
