After some quick debug, here's the backtrace:

[   13.276501] [<fffffe00003da0bc>] __copy_to_user+0x2c/0x60
[   13.276734] [<fffffe0000099f08>] __aarch64_insn_write+0x94/0xf8
[   13.276971] [<fffffe000009a0a0>] aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync+0x18/0x58
[   13.277245] [<fffffe000009c4b0>] ftrace_make_nop+0x54/0x84
[   13.277457] [<fffffe0000164400>] ftrace_process_locs+0x3d0/0x5c8
[   13.277694] [<fffffe00001661ac>] ftrace_module_init+0x28/0x34
[   13.277968] [<fffffe0000135128>] load_module+0xbb8/0xfc4
[   13.278142] [<fffffe00001356f4>] SyS_finit_module+0x94/0xc4

Either ftrace or the patching code is buggy. Need to investigate.

BTW, if you want to be able to get that kind of trace:

diff --git a/arch/arm/kvm/mmio.c b/arch/arm/kvm/mmio.c
index 5d3bfc0..5b23917 100644
--- a/arch/arm/kvm/mmio.c
+++ b/arch/arm/kvm/mmio.c
@@ -183,7 +183,9 @@ int io_mem_abort(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, struct kvm_run *run,
 			return ret;
 	} else {
 		kvm_err("load/store instruction decoding not implemented\n");
-		return -ENOSYS;
+		kvm_inject_dabt(vcpu, kvm_vcpu_get_hfar(vcpu));
+		return 1;
+		//return -ENOSYS;
 	}
 
 	rt = vcpu->arch.mmio_decode.rt;

Now trying to understand how we got there...
