The code is

mov %rax,0x60(%rbx)
call 0x125f5f
mov 0x26184b4(%rip),%edx
mov 0x3078f01(%rip),%rax
movq $0xffffffffb68084e0,0x90(%rbx)
mov %rbx,0x138(%rax,%rdx,8) <-- trapping instruction
jmp <backwards>

with %rdx being some index having the value 0xffffffed (-19).

That's ENODEV.

Without line numbers (if you have debug info for that kernel, it's
good to run "scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh" on stack traces) it's hard

Sorry, I should have done that.

to really know what's up, but I strongly suspect that it's this:

rapl_pmus->pmus[topology_logical_die_id(cpu)] = pmu;

Correct:

which does point to that line. Here is a complete decoded backtrace:
