17.5.0 modules on 6.6-rc6 kernel trigger a warn check in RCU code

When running 17.5.0 with unpatched modules on openSUSE Leap with kernel 6.6-rc6, it consistently triggers a warn check in rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq() when I start a WinXP VM (see attachment for full traces).

Note 1: I get this with Player 17.5.0 but kernel modules are the same and more people are likely to see the report here. But feel free to move this to Player section  if you believe it is relevant.

Note 2: applying this patch to vmmon source seems to help, I no longer get the warns with it
