Kernel Oops

happes on a fresh vanilla master kernel roughly at boot
(before tty login prompt):
$ uname -r
5.0.0-rc6-00153-g5ded5871030e

The kernel page fault happens at 'loadkeys start'.
I suspect some kind of race at reenter of vt_do_kdgkb_ioctl(KDSKBSENT):
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c#L1986

The oops trace looks similar to the following reports (no details besides Oops)

I suspect my system runs multiple loadkeys instances in parallel
and that triggers an Oops.

I noticed that vt_do_kdgkb_ioctl() uses global variable to optimise
func_table re-allocation. Even comment hints at lack of locking:

/* FIXME: This one needs untangling and locking */
int vt_do_kdgkb_ioctl(int cmd, struct kbsentry __user *user_kdgkb, int perm)

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c#L2084

Could that be it?

func_table[] is a global array pointers to to initially statically and later
dynamically allocated buffer.

Thanks!
