I've been running a 6.0 from Friday for a week now without seeing this
panic, so I suspect it's fixed.  However, I don't remember seeing any
commits which look like they were responsible for fixing it, is it
possible that it's just been masked by some other commit?  I'm happy to
step back and find the responsible commit, unless you're happy that it
was fixed for certain.
