Hmm, so this was the oom victim initially but we have decided to kill
its child 1724 instead.

Could you match this to the kernel source please?

kernel/fork.c:629 dup_mmap()

it's atomic_dec(&inode->i_writecount), it matches up with
file_inode(file) == NULL:

(gdb) p &((struct inode *)0)->i_writecount
$1 = (atomic_t *) 0x1e8 <irq_stack_union+488>

no idea how we would end up with use after here. Even if I unmapped the
page then the read code should be able to cope with that. This smells
like a p9 issue to me.

This is fid->clnt dereference at the top of p9_client_read().

Ah, yes, this is the one coming from a page fault:

p9_client_read
v9fs_fid_readpage
v9fs_vfs_readpage
handle_mm_fault
__do_page_fault

the bad fid pointer is filp->private_data.

Hm, so I guess the file itself was NOT freed prematurely (as otherwise
we'd probably have seen a KASAN report for the filp->private_data
dereference), but the ->private_data itself was.

Maybe the whole thing is fundamentally a 9p bug and the OOM killer just
happens to trigger it.
