Public bug reported:

After upgrading from 4.4.0-77 to 4.4.0-78 I started getting kernel
panics.

The crashes do not happen immediately, but have happened generally after
a couple of minutes, sometimes more.

After enabling linux-crashdump stuff, I managed to extract this dmesg.

I've upgraded other machines as well, and only this particular VM shows
this behaviour.

I have a crash dump, but I haven't looked into the contents yet. Getting
the dmesg was already a pain in the behind.

The VM this happens on is:
- a KVM guest
- x86_64, 4 cores
- 16gb ram

lsb_release:
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Release:        16.04
Codename:       xenial

Let me know if there are other helpful details I can provide. If I find
out more, I'll update this ticket.
