Michał pointed out that there is a ftrace-dump-on-oops flag, which could
very well be a way we can vastly increase debug output without
increasing the noise. The challenge is putting it to use. We could start
with a plain function_tracer and see where we need to go from there; I
think we want to trace_printk() (as possibly a igt_trace_printk if we
want to go overboard).
