Uhhuh. It's missing much of the relevant parts of the code line, in
particular the actual oopsing instruction. But what is there decodes
to

        41 b8 10 00 00 00       mov    $0x10,%r8d
        48 c7 c1 88 52 64 81    mov    $0xffffffff81645288,%rcx
        31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
        48 c7 c2 98 52 64 81    mov    $0xffffffff81645298,%rdx
        bf 00 04 00 0.          mov    $0x0.00400,%edi

    .. oops in here ..

        74 33                   je     0x50
        48 89 df                mov    %rbx,%rdi
        e8 4d c9 00 00          callq  ? <offset 0xc972>
        48 89 d9                mov    %rbx,%rcx
        48 c7 c2 0a .. .. ..    mov    $0x......0a,%rdx

which isn't really very obvious. Do you have that kernel around (or at
least the same compiler and configuration)? Doing a

  objdump --disassemble  drivers/acpi/acpica/nsaccess.o

might help pinpoint where that is..

Ok.
