when runing the stabile docker cases in the vm.   The following issue will come up.

struct anon_vma {
  root = 0x0,
  rwsem = {
    count = 0,
    wait_lock = {
      raw_lock = {
        {
          head_tail = 1,
          tickets = {
            head = 1,
            tail = 0
          }
        }
      }
    },
    wait_list = {
      next = 0x0,
      prev = 0x0
    }
  },
  refcount = {
    counter = 0
  },
  rb_root = {
    rb_node = 0x0
  }
}

This maks me wonder,  the anon_vma do not come from slab structure.
and the content is abnormal. IMO,  At least anon_vma->root will not NULL.
The issue can be reproduced every other week.

Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks
