Title:
  ext4 oops when running xfstests on cifs - kernel 5.0.0-x (Disco) only

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Disco:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've found an issue with kernel 5.0.0-24 while trying to verify
  LP#1824981 in a qemu guest - xfstests running on CIFS triggers a crash
  in ext4 with the following signature:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000012c
  #PF error: [normal kernel read fault]
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
  CPU: 3 PID: 24980 Comm: 223 Not tainted 5.0.0-24-generic #25-Ubuntu
  RIP: 0010:call_filldir+0xa2/0x140
  [...]
  Call Trace:
   ext4_readdir+0x869/0xa80
   iterate_dir+0x9a/0x1b0
   __x64_sys_getdents+0xa6/0x140
   ? __x64_sys_getdents+0x140/0x140
   do_syscall_64+0x5a/0x110

  The full oops is attached below.

  I've tested on the following kernels, always in the Disco guest:
  *Reproduced -> 5.0.0-7 (built that one), 5.0.0-13, 5.0.0-21, 5.0.0-23, 
5.0.0-24 (proposed)
  *No Issue -> 4.18.0-25 (from Cosmic), 5.2.0-10 (from Eoan), and 5.0, 5.1 and 
5.2 from mainline builds (https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/)

  To trigger that I've ran the xfstests on a cifs mount point according
  to the instructions in https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Xfstesting-
  cifs . The issue shows around test generic/208 usually.

  I've started a "manual" bisect - isolated all commits from
  v5.0..5.0.0-7, excluded all related with debian folder (and efi-
  lockdown, due to their complexity) and I'm reverting in a binary
  search fashion. Reverted 105 commits and still reproduced, and in the
  next set I've failed to build.

  I'll investigate the build fault and also I'll try to reproduce in a
  Bionic VM with bionic-hwe kernel version 5.0 .
