And in the meantime, please see below for a patch designed to catch

commit d730d54e543e5cf7376ff61e3ad407490f08c85e
Author: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@...nel.org>
Date:   Wed Jan 12 09:52:44 2022 -0800

    srcu: Tighten cleanup_srcu_struct() GP checks
    
    Currently, cleanup_srcu_struct() checks for a grace period in progress,
    but it does not check for a grace period that has not yet started but
    which might start at any time.  Such a situation could result in a
    use-after-free bug, so this commit adds a check for a grace period that
    is needed but not yet started to cleanup_srcu_struct().
