Description

Hi, 

As I see a few windriver changes in this area, maybe they have an idea what happens. 

The crash happens in drivers/staging/fsl_qbman/qman_high.c around row 2720. 
The list_for_each_entry() finds an entry in the list that has the value 0 (NULL). 
It then subtracts 24 (offset of list element in the struct type) and dereference that value 
which causes the oops. 

As far as I know a kernel list like this can not normal have NULL pointers, so 
there is some corruption, use after free, or some such going on here. 

As this is not easy to reproduce here and that we are in progress of upgrading to 
WRL7 we will wait to see what happens with the new kernel. 

But maybe someone more familiar with the code can spot an issue from this.
