I am experiencing a similar error on dozens of hosts, with stack traces 
that are all similar:

I have around 50 hosts handling high I/O (each with 20Gbps+ uplinks
and multiple NVMe drives), running RockyLinux 8/9. The stock RHEL
kernel 8/9 is NOT affected, and the long-term kernel 5.15.X is NOT affected.
However, with long-term kernels 6.1.XX and 6.6.XX,
(tested at least 10 different versions), this lockup always appears
after 2-30 days, similar to the report in the original thread.
The more load (for example, copying a lot of local files while
serving 20Gbps traffic), the higher the chance that the bug will appear.

I haven't been able to reproduce this during synthetic tests,
but it always occurs in production on 6.1.X and 6.6.X within 2-30 days.
If anyone can provide a patch, I can test it on multiple machines
over the next few days.

Regards,
Marcin
