I tried with ftrace, but I don't think there's a way to dump the trace
when there's a soft lock-up
(I can't do anything after the unbind, even the heartbeat led stopped blinking).
I saw the /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops file, but there's no
/proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_soft_lock-up file :)

Or I missed something in ftrace ?

Thanks !
