This is a good example of where you've gone horribly wrong, this relies on 31c532a8af57 ("maple_tree: add end of node tracking to the maple state") which is not in 6.6.
You reverted (!!) my backported patch for this that _does not require this_ only to pull in 31c532a8af57 in order to apply the upstream version of my fix over that.
This is totally unnecessary and I can't see why _on earth_ you would need 31c532a8af57.
You need to correctly identify what patches need to be backported and _fix merge conflicts_ accordingly, like I did with the patch that you decided to revert.
In the kernel it is absolutely unacceptable to arbitrarily backport huge amounts of patches you don't understand in order to avoid merge conflicts, you may be breaking all kinds of things without realising.
You have to find the _minimal_ change and _fix merge conflicts_.
Stable is not a playground, it's what millions (billions?) of kernels rely upon.
In any case, I think Liam's reply suggests that we should be looking at maybe 1 thing to backport? If we even need to?
Please in future be more cautious, and if you are unsure how to proceed, cc- the relevant maintainers (+ all authors of patches you intend to backport/revert) in an RFC. Thanks.
