My experience with random crashes with rps on snb/ivb is that there's no
solid systems, just systems where no one has bothered to be really evil
yet.

I'd be really cautious with whitelisting since it tends to not really
solve the underlying bug (if there is one), usually blows up really fast
in size and is long-term unmaintainable. We've been there a few times with
other hacks and issues :(
