I got the following oops dump during a stress load, which I cannot make any
sense out of it. The most confusing part is that the status register
indicates program was running in kernel (KSU bits) while the $epc points to a
userland address. How could this be ever possible at hardware level?
The only possible explanation is perhaps those saved registers were corrupted
between when the exception happens and core dumps, but so unlikely .... *sigh*
Any insight?
