It smells like a memory stomp.  current->nsproxy is always supposed to
have a valid value, and it never would have an odd value.  The value
should always be at least 8 byte aligned.

Since the value is impossible this doesn't feel like a path where the
error handling is wrong.

So I am guessing this is a memory stomp.  My guess it would take the
same sequence of system calls on the same kernel build to reproduce
this problem in the same place.

Do you have any more information?
