And the 0002 is telling you that there's been 2 previous bug/oops since the
reboot, so you need to go back through your dmesg and find the *first* one.

The first few entries in the call trace are the oops handler itself. So...

The above line is the one where you hit the wall.

And again.

However,  given that it's a 4.4 kernel from 4 years ago, it's going to be
hard to find anybody who really cares.

In fact. I'm wondering if this is from some out-of-tree or vendor patch,
because I'm not finding any sign of that function in either the 5.7 or 4.4
tree.  Not even a sign of ## catenation abuse - no relevant hits for
"completed_one_buffer" or "multi_q" either

I don't think anybody's going to be able to help unless somebody first
identifies where that function is....
