Our CI reports this with linux-next and running strace selftest in
compat mode:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception: panic_on_oops

Note: I did not try to bisect this, since it looks to me like this
patch series causes the problem. Also, please don't get confused with
the kernel version name. The date encoded is the build date, not the
linux-next version.
linux-next commit 4ccc9e2db7ac ("Add linux-next specific files for
20210729") was used to build the kernel (s390 defconfig).
