Subject: Re: [bug-report] task info hung problem in fb_deferred_io_work()

+CC stable( heads up as this is a regression affecting 5.15.y and 
probably others, Greg: this was reproducible upstream so reported 
everything w.r.t upstream code but initially found on 5.15.y)

This patch works well against the reproducer, this simplified repro and 
the longer repro which syzkaller generated couldn't trigger any hang 
with the below patch applied.
