I didn't write down most of the BUG() panics, but here is one (unfortunately
it doesn't have any QoS code in the stack trace):
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
root@trillian:~/uni-qos# cat panic.txt

KERNEL BUG slab.c:1263
root@trillian:~/uni-qos#
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
A quick objdump through the kernel's vmlinux image reveals, that the stack
trace above looks as follows:
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
c0192eb1 alloc_skb
c0176c8c speedo_refill_rx_buf
c017718c speedo_rx
c0176afa speedo_interrupt
c010810f handle_IRQ_event
c01082b3 do_IRQ
c0105240 default_idle
c0105240 default_idle
c0105240 default_idle
c0105240
c0105263 default_idle
c01052d2 cpu_idle
c0105000 rest_init
c0105027 rest_init
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
It crashes when it hits BUG(); in slab.c:
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
#if DEBUG
if (cachep->flags & SLAB_POISON)
if (kmem_check_poison_obj(cachep, objp))
BUG();
------------< snip <------< snip <------< snip <------------
