No. I've rebuild my kernel without TRACE_IRQFLAGS and the problem
vanished, as expected. The problem is, that in some cases the stack is
only two frames deep, which causes the macro CALLER_ADDR1 makes an
invalid access. Someone told me, there a workaround for the problem on
i386, too.

% sed -n 2p arch/x86/lib/thunk_32.S
 * Trampoline to trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)

Bye, Jörg.
