That was the first thing I tried. I tested it with 5.10, 5.9 and 5.4.
All 3 crashed. That's when I knew this one was going to be painful one
to conclude.

The only other input I have is that I have one more user who's reported
to be able to reproduce the issue.

OTOH, I have one more user (other than you) who's not been able to
reproduce the issue.

Meanwhile, I enabled some debug info in the kernel. Here's what I have
got so far:
