The WARN has this comment above:

/*
* Deadlock or stack overflow issues can happen if we recurse here
* through waitqueue wakeup handlers. If the caller users potentially
* nested waitqueues with custom wakeup handlers, then it should
* check eventfd_signal_count() before calling this function. If
* it returns true, the eventfd_signal() call should be deferred to a
* safe context.
*/

This was added in 2020, so it's unlikely to be the direct cause of the
change. What is a known-good version for the host?

Since it is not KVM stuff, I'm CCing Michael and Jason.
