Arrgghh... Could you check if vfs.git#fixes recovers that? FWIW, proposed fix
is this:

commit d98d78cd6ac9eb5ed0506140cc43432d7c7dd480
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date: Sun Apr 5 21:59:55 2020 -0400

fix braino in legitimize_path()

brown paperbag time... wrong order of arguments ended up confusing
the values to check dentry and mount_lock seqcounts against.
