[ 2.529263] rcu: Hierarchical SRCU implementation.
[ 2.530393] Kprobe smoke test: started
[ 2.555965] Kprobe smoke test: passed successfully
[ 2.556454] smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...
As per above, the same spot in the kprobe test seems to manage to not
panic anymore and the remainder of the boot looks clean and normal.
I tested directly on vanilla v5.15.57.
Thanks for the quick response!
Paul.
