Yeah, I tried making an argument for:

we tell lockdep irqs are enabled hit an if() end up in lockdep code
through the branch tracer and find borken state, or vice-versa.

Just couldn't find it in the provided stack-trace. Might be I didn't
look hard enough, might be there's something else entirely.

All I know is I've never seen it on real hardware, then again, I hardly
ever have CONFIG_PARAVIRT or CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING, let alone
both.
