It is this one,

commit 787af64d05cd528aac9ad16752d11bb1c6061bb9
Author: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>
Date:   Wed Mar 30 15:45:43 2022 -0700

     mm: page_alloc: validate buddy before check its migratetype.

     Whenever a buddy page is found, page_is_buddy() should be called to
     check its validity.  Add the missing check during pageblock merge 
check.

     Fixes: 1dd214b8f21c ("mm: page_alloc: avoid merging 
non-fallbackable pageblocks with others")
