^--- POISON_INUSE

But I don't know if this is really significant, given that it's not
the first error you're getting. It may also be just a remnant of the
memset() that marks the SLUB objects as such. (Or something like
that.)

Too bad the recursive page fault stops us from getting the Code: line.

Config would be nice :-)
