I can't make any sense of this.  It doesn't look anything like what I
get when I disassemble assoc_array_insert().  There are no SARL or ADC
instructions.

Can you load your vmlinux into gdb and disassemble the function that holds the
faulting instruction:

	gdb vmlinux
	(gdb) disassemble <RIP-value>

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the RIP value actually is because it's been
replaced in the dump by source file + line number.  It's not this:

	[   31.330473] CR2: ffffffff8b49ff42

though.  That's RAX (ie. 0) plus the offset in the following instruction:

	sarl   $0x5f,-0x74b600be(%rax)		<-- trapping instruction
