Sorry, I will remeber that next time.

Instead of running the whole testsuite, I just picked this single LTP oom02 test which seems usually trigger it within the testsuite. Let me know if this is insufficient (which indeed tell the big difference in "Unique stacks"), and I am happy to run the whole things.
BAD: next-20200608 GOOD: next-20200528 (which does not include this series)
BAD (after boot) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/info Unique stacks: 33547 Depot index: 359 Depot offset: 6752
BAD (after oom02) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/info Unique stacks: 140476 Depot index: 2555 Depot offset: 9168
GOOD (after boot) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/info Unique stacks: 31112 Depot index: 317 Depot offset: 14384
GOOD (after oom02) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/info Unique stacks: 34176 Depot index: 354 Depot offset: 4032
BTW, I am happy to run another one using next-20200608 with just this series reverted if you suspect there is something else going on between those two trees.
