Hello!
Last time I met with the same problem on ARM926 based platform and
Kernel 3.10.88. After applying all hints from this thread I found that
usb driver (dwc_otg) was corrupting memory by writing into previously
freed memory.
Bug was detected using kernel settings:
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_SLUB=y
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y
Which immediately gives nice result:
"BUG kmalloc-64 (Tainted: G O): Poison overwritten"
Good for me, the same USB driver is used on Raspberry Pi and problem was
fixed: "[PATCH 042/680] dwc_otg: fix bug in dwc_otg_hcd.c resulting in
silent kernel memory corruption, escalating to OOPS under high USB load."
