I have no idea about how apparmor works, but this looks like a legitimate kernel crash and kgdb is catching, just as I would expect.  If you want to continue on and pass the signal to the kernel's die notification system at the gdb prompt enter:

signal 9

I would recommend understanding the cause of each crash because because any null dereferences would lead me to wonder about the stability of the kernel you are running.
