Subject: Test failure from "file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU"

For the past few days (I was away last week...) the fd-003-kthread.c
test from the proc kselftests has been failing on arm64, this is an
nfsroot system if that makes any odds.  The test output itself is:

  # selftests: proc: fd-003-kthread
  # fd-003-kthread: fd-003-kthread.c:113: test_readdir: Assertion `!de' failed.
  # Aborted
  not ok 3 selftests: proc: fd-003-kthread # exit=134

I ran a bisect which pointed at the commit

   d089d9d056c048303aedd40a7f3f26593ebd040c file: convert to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU

(I can't seem to find that on lore.) I've not done any further analysis
of what the commit is doing or anything, though it does look like the
bisect ran fairly smoothly and it looks at least plausibly related to
the issue and reverting the commit on top of -next causes the test to
start passing again.

The bisect log is below and a full log from a failing test job can be
seen here:

Thanks,
