Looks like a kernel bug handling namespace ranges that are misaligned
(to the device-dax alignment) at the start and the end of range. These
namespaces appear to be 256MB aligned, and the driver fails to trim
off the unaligned space when creating the namespace. Thanks for the
report, I'll copy you on the fix."
