I'm not familiar with irq tracing, but I traced it as far as a function 
pointer in a macro at fs/ecryptfs/keystore.c:840 then tried blacklisting 
the aesni_intel module and I haven't been able to reproduce it since.

At this point I would be interested if anyone else can reproduce it on 
another Intel Ivy Bridge system with aesni and Linux 3.10:
1. Setup an ecryptfs mount over an ext4 file system
2. Cause a program running inside ecryptfs mount to core dump

Thanks,
