virt_addr_valid() works on kernel linear addresses, not on vmalloc 
addresses, which is the case here  (0xff20000006d37c38 belongs to the 
vmalloc region: see 
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/Documentation/riscv/vm-layout.rst#L125). 
So this fix can't work.

I'm a bit surprised though of this out-of-bounds access since 
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is enabled, so there may be a real issue here (the 
console output is horrible, lots of backtraces, which is weird), so it 
may be worth digging into that.

Thanks,

Alex
