So here's the stack of the usermode thread:

While it seems that 9p is the culprit, I have to point out that this
bug is easily reproducible, and it happens each time due to a
call_usermode_helper() call. Other than that 9p behaves perfectly and
I'd assume that I'd be seeing other things break besides
call_usermode_helper() related ones.
