In a related case, I've managed to swap my 'resume_userspace' format 
error for a nice 'illegal instruction' format error apparently caused by 
an invalid function pointer in __handle_irq_event_percpu(), just by 
disabling all interrupts upon entering the auto_inthandler and 
user_inthandler exception handlers. This bug is quite readily reproduced 
by running your kernel_coverage.sh script in a loop (panics on the first 
stress test on the second pass):

Stress run 2
Logging to stress-ng-20210908-0838.log
./kernel-coverage.sh: line 272: lcov: command not found
running --fork 1 --fork-vm -t 60 --timestamp --no-rand-seed --times
stress-ng: 08:40:08.70 info:  [1914] setting to a 60 second run per stressor
stress-ng: 08:40:08.82 info:  [1914] dispatching hogs: 1 fork
packet_write_wait: Connection to 10.1.1.4 port 22: Broken pipe

Why disabling interrupts during interrupt processing would make matters 
worse doesn't make any sense to me...


Are you able to reproduce that with a stock mainline build?
