I just bisected a boot failure that our continuous integration sees [1]
with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_KCSAN=y to this change in -tip/-next. It
does not appear to be clang specific, as I can reproduce it with GCC
13.2.0 from kernel.org [2] (the rootfs is available at [3], if it is
necessary for reproducing).

If there is any other information I can provide or patches I can test, I
am more than happy to do so.
