While helping Neal fix his broken file system I added a debug patch to catch if we were calling btrfs_search_slot with a NULL root, and this stack trace popped: we tried to search with a NULL root CPU: 0 PID: 1760 Comm: mount Not tainted 5.11.0-155.nealbtrfstest.1.fc34.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: VMware, Inc.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
