Me too.  binary search indicates that it's introduced by
gregkh-pci-pci-assign-unassigned-resources.patch.

Unfortunately that patch does three seemingly-unrelated things and none of
them are directly related to /proc handling.  Splitting the patch into
three pieces indicates that this hunk alone is sufficient to cause the
crash:
