That looks like the KCOV helper accessing memory that's not safe to
access in the interrupt handling context.
Do not instrument the new syscall entry/exit code with KCOV, GCOV or
UBSAN.

be warned: I haven't attempted to reproduce the crash yet,
nor have I been able to test that this fixes it. I will attempt to do
that soon. Logically though, it does seem like this would be a
good thing to do regardless.
