I think this was caused by using dev_info with a kfd_device that didn't 
exist any more. It was fixed by this commit:

commit c393e9b2d51540b74e18e555df14706098dbf2cc
Author: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

     drm/amdkfd: fix amdkfd use-after-free GP fault

     Fix GP fault caused by dev_info() reference to a struct device*
     after the device has been freed (use after free).
     kfd_chardev_exit() frees the device so 'kfd_device' should not
     be used after calling kfd_chardev_exit().

In current kernels, amdkfd is no longer a separate KO. It's part of 
amdgpu now. Also see above. This bug is probably not reproducible any more.
