Sorry, I should've included the below oops report in the patch description.

Sadly, I think it's too late to fix that now as Linus has taken the patch.

The problem can only occur when the cache is being started up and if an LSM
(such as SELinux) is being used that can reject set_create_files_as().  It can
only be incurred by root, as only root can start up a cache.

Yes, it should got to stable too.
