While running LTP tracing ftrace-stress-test kernel on arm64 dragonboard bd410c got panic on stable rc 4.14 branch. I will run git bisect starting from 4.14 and get back to you on this email thread.
metadata: git branch: linux-4.14.y git repo: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git kernel-config: https://builds.tuxbuild.com/ia1EnWmxGbTrk8uPt4w3tA/kernel.config
steps to reproduce: # Boot arm64 db410c with trace configs enabled. # cd /opt/ltp # ./runltp -f tracing
