The upstream fix is likely this:

Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: fix the crash due to call ocfs2_get_dlm_debug once
 less

Because ocfs2_get_dlm_debug() function is called once less here, ocfs2
file system will trigger the system crash, usually after ocfs2 file
system is unmounted.

This system crash is caused by a generic memory corruption, these crash
backtraces are not always the same, for exapmle,
