I've been seeing it when running roadtest, but it's easily reproducible
without that by using the attached config and the following program as
init.

  cp repro.config .config
  make ARCH=um olddefconfig all
  gcc -Wall -static -o repro repro.c
  ./linux time-travel init=$PWD/repro rootfstype=hostfs

With the above commands I usually see the panic in a few seconds.  This
is on an unmodified v6.6-rc7.

                nanosleep(&(struct timespec){.tv_nsec = 22 * 1000}, NULL);
        }
        
        return 0;
}
