No, you aren't.  This is a terrible bug report, and you seem to have
sent several with the same defects.  First, read:

https://blog.regehr.org/archives/2037

Then, specifically to reporting a kernel bug *LOOK AT HOW OTHER PEOPLE
DO IT*.  Your email includes lots of stuff that is of no help and
doesn't include the most important thing -- the kernel logs from around
the time of the failure.

This is useless.

You didn't attach these things, but please don't.

We want the stacktrace.  Preferably passed through
scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh so we get nice symbols.
