I tested reverting those 3 commits but it does NOT help.
276836260301 tracing: Create set_event_notrace_pid to not trace tasks
b3b1e6ededa4 ftrace: Create set_ftrace_notrace_pid to not trace tasks
717e3f5ebc82 ftrace: Make function trace pid filtering a bit more exact
So, it is either one of those is bad.
9c94b39560c3 Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4
aa1a8ce53332 Merge tag 'trace-v5.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
At this point, I suspect this one in ext4_for_linus,
ac58e4fb03f9 ext4: move ext4 bmap to use iomap infrastructure
given the first a few days, it was crashed due to this new ext4_bmap -> iomap_bmap
callsite from the above commit,
LR: ext4_iomap_end
The next few days, even though it starts to crash at,
LR: find_free_cb
by the LTP chown04_16 which is still somewhat ext4 related.
# /opt/ltp/testcases/bin/chown04_16
chown04_16 0 TINFO : Found free device 0 '/dev/loop0'
chown04_16 0 TINFO : Formatting /dev/loop0 with ext2 opts='' extra opts=''
mke2fs 1.45.4 (23-Sep-2019)

chown04_16 2 TBROK : safe_macros.c:764: Remaining cases broken
Is it possible that iomap somewhat corrupt the NIP?
In the next a few hours, I should be able to tell if the trace merge commit is clear.
