Hola Andrew!

There are any workarounds for this, until the problem is corrected?
This will probably make it go away.

Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the problem. Seems that the panic it's triggered a little later (1-2 minutes instead of a few seconds), but anyway I have a kernel panic every time, also with this patch.

The oops tracing looks very similar to the one I've posted on the linux-kernel list.

Thank you Andrew, bye!
