Backing up keys makes Element crash

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug If I restore my backup (doesn’t matter if via QR code or recovery key) the app just keeps crashing all the time. After starting it up again it crashes to fast to send a rageshake, but logcat gives me the following:

The pull request says that it fixes the crash but not the root cause. What is the root cause and is this something we can get rid of ourselves?
