My crash dump analysis indicates that the crash occurs because statahead newly started thread finds lli_sai == NULL when it is not expected/checked in associated code :

// FIXME: replace the name of this with LL_I to conform to kernel stuff
// static inline struct ll_inode_info *LL_I(struct inode *inode)
static inline struct ll_inode_info *ll_i2info(struct inode *inode)
{
        return container_of(inode, struct ll_inode_info, lli_vfs_inode);
}

/*
 * take refcount of sai if sai for @dir exists, which means statahead is on for
 * this directory.
 */
static inline struct ll_statahead_info *ll_sai_get(struct inode *dir)
{
        struct ll_inode_info *lli = ll_i2info(dir);
        struct ll_statahead_info *sai = NULL;

        spin_lock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
        sai = lli->lli_sai;
        if (sai != NULL)
                atomic_inc(&sai->sai_refcount);
        spin_unlock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
        
        return sai;        <<<<< sai can be returned NULL !!!!
}            


/* statahead thread main function */
static int ll_statahead_thread(void *arg)
{
        struct dentry *parent = (struct dentry *)arg;
        struct inode *dir = parent->d_inode;
        struct ll_inode_info *lli = ll_i2info(dir);
        struct ll_sb_info *sbi = ll_i2sbi(dir);
        struct ll_statahead_info *sai;
        struct ptlrpc_thread *sa_thread;

        int first = 0;

        struct ll_dir_chain chain;
        struct l_wait_info lwi = { 0 };
        struct page *page = NULL;
        __u64 pos = 0;
        int rc = 0;
        ENTRY;

        sai = ll_sai_get(dir); <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< sai can be returned NULL !!!!!
        sa_thread = &sai->sai_thread;
        agl_thread = &sai->sai_agl_thread;
        sa_thread->t_pid = current_pid();   <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<  BUG()
…………………..

Further crash-dump analysis and concerned source code reading has pointed me to a racy scenario where multiple+concurrent attempts to start statahead thread for the same dir has occurred which can lead to this BUG(), due to the fact start_statahead_thread() routine unconditionally clearing lli_sai upon error (i.e., even if already/previously set by an other starter for ll_statahead_thread!) :

static int start_statahead_thread(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry)
{
        struct ll_inode_info *lli = ll_i2info(dir);
        struct ll_statahead_info *sai = NULL;
        struct dentry *parent = dentry->d_parent;
        struct ptlrpc_thread *thread;
        struct l_wait_info lwi = { 0 };
        struct task_struct *task;
        int rc;
        ENTRY;

        /* I am the "lli_opendir_pid" owner, only me can set "lli_sai". */
        rc = is_first_dirent(dir, dentry);
        if (rc == LS_NOT_FIRST_DE)
                /* It is not "ls -{a}l" operation, no need statahead for it. */
                GOTO(out, rc = -EFAULT); <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

        sai = ll_sai_alloc(parent);
        if (sai == NULL)
                GOTO(out, rc = -ENOMEM); <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

        sai->sai_ls_all = (rc == LS_FIRST_DOT_DE);

        /* if current lli_opendir_key was deauthorized, or dir re-opened by
         * another process, don't start statahead, otherwise the newly spawned
         * statahead thread won't be notified to quit. */
        spin_lock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
        if (unlikely(lli->lli_sai != NULL || <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                     lli->lli_opendir_key == NULL ||
                     lli->lli_opendir_pid != current->pid)) {
                spin_unlock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
                GOTO(out, rc = -EPERM);
        }
        lli->lli_sai = sai;
        spin_unlock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
..........................
out:
        /* once we start statahead thread failed, disable statahead so that
         * subsequent stat won't waste time to try it. */
        spin_lock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);
        lli->lli_sa_enabled = 0;
        lli->lli_sai = NULL; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
        spin_unlock(&lli->lli_sa_lock);

        if (sai != NULL)
                ll_sai_free(sai);

        RETURN(rc);
}

So my first guess is that this problem can be fixed simply by checking if (lli->lli_sai == said) before to clear/NULL lli->lli_sai in start_statahead_thread(), I will push a patch soon to implement this.

"BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000088" in ll_statahead_thread()
