I suspect this is unlikely to change as it hasn't attracted any
interest. Someone using Go and KASAN needs to debug this... I suspect
it may be due to something being KASAN instrumented that shouldn't be.

Looking at those, they look a bit weird. First:

PC is at check_kcov_mode kernel/kcov.c:163 [inline]
PC is at __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x40/0x78 kernel/kcov.c:197

Why is this duplicated?

Second:

sp : 8b4e6078  ip : 8b4e6088  fp : 8b4e6084
...
Process   (pid: 0, stack limit = 0x147f9c36)

The stack limit is definitely wrong, and it looks like the thread_info
is likely wrong too. Given the value of "sp" I wonder if the kernel
stack has overflowed and overwritten the thread_info structure at the
bottom of the kernel stack.

I've no idea what effect KCOV would have on the kernel - it's something
I've never looked at, so I don't know what changes it would impose.
At this point, as there's very little commercial interest in arm32,
there's probably little hope in getting this sorted. It may make sense
to force KCOV to be disabled for arm32.
