Kernel panic while deleting directory tree

This is reproducible for me. I can supply more details if you cannot reproduce.
- download
https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/simplejson/simplejson-3.6.5.tar.gzto host machine - upload the file to the emulator
- extract it using
tar xf simplejson-3.6.5.tar.gz - delete the directory using
rm -rf simplejson-3.6.5 - kernel panic
Yes, this error bothers me for months now and I couldn't find the problem yet, even after several hours of searching. It is somewhere in the virtio/9p part. What I know is, that this also happens with an emulated x86 CPU, but my implementation of virtio/9p.
At the moment my best guess is, that there is an error in the Linux kernel and that I trigger it somehow.
Virtio expects, that the hardware directly manipulate some Linux structures in memory, which is kind of crazy.
There are a lot of patches available for the 3.19 kernel.

After the new kernel is released I will test it with those changes.
Can you share the current kernel .config?
@dugoh here it is: http://jor1k.com/or1k-toolchain.tar.bz2
in patches/linux/CONFIG_LINUX
That's more like it (compared to the one in jor1k-toolchain-builder), thx!
The repository is outdated, but links in the readme to the newest toolchain file.
Tried 3.19-rc3. No luck.
@s-macke you mention "emulated x86 CPU" what does this mean ? Qemu ? jor1k, that emulates x86 instead of OpenRISC ?
