[   84.573018] ==================================================================

[CAUSE]

The task_struct pointed to by sq->thread is released while it is being
used in the function __io_uring_show_fdinfo(), because holding the lock
ctx->uring_lock does not prevent the release of sq->thread.

[FIX]

The fix is to increase the reference count of the task_struct pointed
to by sq->thread and to use RCU to ensure that it is not released while
being used.
