Can you tell me the file and line this corresponds to?

I don't know, but some debugging shows that fc->ops == NULL.

This NULL derefs linux-next.

Emergency (sysrq remount/reboot):

emergency_remount()
  do_emergency_remount()
   do_emergency_remount_callback()
    reconfigure_super()

At fc->ops dereference:

  981         if (fc->ops->reconfigure) {
                ^^^^^^^^^
  982                 retval = fc->ops->reconfigure(fc);
  983                 if (retval == 0) {
  984                         security_sb_reconfigure(fc);


So the check either better be

        if (fc->ops && fc->ops->reconfigure)


Since there are multiple instances of fs_context where fc->ops isn't set,
this check would be needed wherever fc->ops is dereferenced.

Guenter

Or, we need to set ->ops properly. But I'm not sure if invoking
->init_fs_context() from emergency-reboot path is going to work
well all the time.
