New observation! On my Arch machine which has 

5.10.11-arch1-1

And 

# CONFIG_EXPERT is not set
CONFIG_UID16=y

(So according to my previous email it not trigger the bug)

I’m getting the following strace:

$ strace -v -e trace=file ~/sh -c "test -w /home/dongcarl/.bash_profile”
execve(<blahblah>) = 0
[ Process PID=404360 runs in 32 bit mode. ]
open("/dev/tty", O_RDWR)                = 3
stat("/home/dongcarl", 0xffdcd738)      = -1 EOVERFLOW (Value too large for defined data type)
getcwd("/home/dongcarl", 1024)          = 15
stat("/home/dongcarl/.bash_profile", 0xffdcd6bc) = -1 EOVERFLOW (Value too large for defined data type)
+++ exited with 1 +++

Not sure hot to interpret this...
