we just upgraded from 4.19.250 to 5.15.73 and crashed our main VPN gateway twice :o)

The callstack is exactly the same as above, this time on x86_64.

On the second crash we had the serial console ready,
but the kernel was compiled without CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO.
I've recompiled the kernel with debug info now and wait for another crash.

Once the system crashes, even the magic sysrq (over serial) stops working.

We already had the suspicion it's related to IPSec since once we booted
kernel 5.15 on our main gateway, it took ~10 minutes until it crashed
(passed all QA tests before...) and during this time quite a few VPN tunnels
were reestablished - at least two of them behind NAT. Fits the picture above.

This is the backtrace so far:

**************************************

I had to remove one or two unrelated log lines since once the kernel noticed
the Oops, the log level of the serial console was increased and also logged 
unrelated messages in between. So hopefully I didn't remove anything vital.

Also no further syslog output related to VPN is visible upon crash.

HTH,
Thomas
