In addition to my previous answer, fortunately I was able to log oopses
to a serial console, so below are two of them.
They seem to appear from in a few seconds to in a few minutes after I
run:
$ while true; do cat /dev/ttyM7 > /dev/null; done
when /dev/ttyM7 is setup so that 'cat' immediately returns (due to zero
timeout).
Note that unpatched version always hangs in less than a second.
First oops is taken from the kernel with lock debugging enabled:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000080
printing eip:
