Subject: regression in 6.1.yy branch: LTP test preadv03 fails

Hello,

I noticed yesterday that LTP test preadv03 now fails since 6.1.64 (it 
also fails on 6.1.65).

6.6.4, 6.6.3, 6.5.0 and 6.2.0 seem to be unaffected.

I tested this on x86_64 and kvx arch (the latter is not upstream).

I can see some ext4 related commits on 6.1.64 and 6.1.65 changes, maybe 
it's related, therefore I add ext4 mailing list as CC.

I didn't run git bisect on this so far because I noticed building an 
x86_64 ubuntu kernel on my laptop was taking ages. Maybe someone is more 
used to dealing with this and can bisect this way faster than me.

How to reproduce:

```

git clone https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp.git

cd ltp && make autotools && ./configure

make -j4

cd testcases/kernel/syscalls/preadv

sudo ./preadv03

```

On 6.1.64 x86_64 kernel for instance it gives:
