Done that, it brings us to n_tty_set_termios() this time:

1457:		wake_up_interruptible(&tty->read_wait);

Not sure which part of the if() it is that explodes, I would guess
it's !L_ICANON(tty):

	#define ICANON      0000002
	#define _L_FLAG(tty, f) ((tty)->termios->c_lflag & (f))
	#define L_ICANON(tty)  _L_FLAG((tty), ICANON)
=>
	if (canon_change && !((tty)->termios->c_lflag & (ICANON)) && tty->read_cnt)
=>
	tty->termios is probably NULL


Anyhow, here is the matching extract of objdump for n_tty.o:

Some further notes:
- disconnect causes the device to vanish and minicom to tell so.
  Quit minicom works without complaint. Any restart produces
  the same effect as above
- after this trace some lock remains taken that causes processes
  to stall (processes ending up in D state)
- when booting with this kernel some part of the init sequence
  never shows up on screen (e.g. everything from init's runlevel
  3 is missing and getty's prompt shows up with some delay compared
  to gettys on other VTs.
