Besides the matching kernel, kgdb also must be build from the same sources
as the kernel to provide useful information from the core dump.

Anyway, I looked at the ddb output already, said that it looks as either
driver or hw problem with very high confidence.

I think the time of the project could be spent more productive elsewere,
while submitter checks his hardware, for instance, by changing controller,
disks, or controller type.
