OTOH, there's no issue on the pure v4.17 kernel.

As above, ls /sys/module looks apparently good. But I guess any part of
behavior of getdentries() on sysfs must have changed, affecting the disk
detection...

Why not trying to find the final target object here?

Looking at the code, I think the operation needed here is to find the
smallest active object in the same namespace from the objects larger
than the saved object given as argument. The saved object appears to
be used as cache. I think dividing the process into kernfs_dir_pos()
is not necessary.

I mean like this:
