Yes, I am aware. That driver does not work well for me (but this is the
other case). However I did a test with his driver and the result was also
a kernel oops:

On what hardware you use the g_serial driver? It is ARM-based? I
understand that this might be also related to the way that low level
hardware gadget driver is implemented, but I really have no idea how
to hunt for this bug.
