            Bug ID: 205621
           Summary: Linux next-20191121 NULL dereference on start-up,
                    leading to unusable system
           Product: Networking
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: next-20191121
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
          Assignee: stephen@networkplumber.org
          Reporter: nicholas.johnson-opensource@outlook.com.au
        Regression: No

The .config

Linux next-20191121 - .config file attached.

NULL dereference on start-up, leading to unusable system.

Used "git clone --depth=1 --single-branch --branch next-20191115
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git"

Where I am, I cannot use serial console to save the stack trace.

I will attach a photo of the screen.

The top few functions are:

kernfs_find_and_get_ns
sysfs_remove_group
netdev_queue_update_kobjects
netdev_unregister_kobject

This leads me to believe that it is part of networking.

I will do a bisect if I have to, but given how time consuming they are on a
quad-core machine, I hope somebody else with a 32-core Threadripper can step up
to the task.
