Turns out that this commit, about 10 years ago:
9ec23531fd48 ("sched/preempt, mm/fault: Trigger might_sleep() in might_fault() with disabled pagefaults")
... accidentally (and unnessecarily) put the lockdep part of
__might_fault() under CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y.
This is potentially notable because large distributions such as
Ubuntu are running with !CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP.
Restore the debug check.
