[ 0.029479] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
[ 0.029907] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! ]---
The NULL pointer accessing caused the kernel panic. There is a NULL
pointer is because in vstate_save() function it will check
(regs->status & SR_VS) == SR_VS_DIRTY and this is true, but it shouldn't
be true because vector is not used here. Since vector is not used, datap
won't be allocated so it is NULL. The reason why regs->status is set to
a wrong value is because pt_regs->status is put in stack and it is polluted
after setup_vm() called.
In prologue of setup_vm(), we can observe it will save s2 to stack however
s2 is meaningless here because the caller is assembly code and s2 is just
some value from previous stage. The compiler will base on calling
convention to save the register to stack. Then 0x80008638 in s2 is saved
to stack. It might be any value. In this failure case it is 0x80008638 and
it will accidentally cause SR_VS_DIRTY to call the vstate_save() function.
