Just a quick look comparing dlm_tcp_listen_bind between the latest 6.1
and 6.6 stable branches,
it looks like there is a mismatch here with the dlm_local_addr[0] parameter.

6.1
----

static int dlm_tcp_listen_bind(struct socket *sock)
{
int addr_len;

/* Bind to our port */
make_sockaddr(dlm_local_addr[0], dlm_config.ci_tcp_port, &addr_len);
return kernel_bind(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&dlm_local_addr[0],
   addr_len);
}

6.6
----
static int dlm_tcp_listen_bind(struct socket *sock)
{
int addr_len;

/* Bind to our port */
make_sockaddr(&dlm_local_addr[0], dlm_config.ci_tcp_port, &addr_len);
return kernel_bind(sock, (struct sockaddr *)&dlm_local_addr[0],
   addr_len);
}

6.6 contains commit c51c9cd8 (fs: dlm: don't put dlm_local_addrs on heap) which
changed

static struct sockaddr_storage *dlm_local_addr[DLM_MAX_ADDR_COUNT];

to

static struct sockaddr_storage dlm_local_addr[DLM_MAX_ADDR_COUNT];

It looks like kernel_bind() in 6.1 needs to be modified to match.
