• A second panic is similar in that rpciod thread panics, but at a different place, hitting kernel BUG at kernel/workqueue.c which is the following BUG_ON(get_wq_data(work) != cwq);. Also, prior to the oops, we see some warnings about list corruption, triggered from a __list_add called from xprt_reserve_xprt. Based on the location in the code, the list corruption is being flagged on the rpc_xprt's 'sending' or 'resend' queue
