That is exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much!

Now I am one step closer to my solution, depending that I am disallowed to make 
any more kmalloc's in our realtime environment. But, it seems that I need a 
change in the master, so I could make a soe_read similar to a sdo_read...
I try it for my self and will report back suggesting a change solution which 
might be adding functions like ecrt_soe_request_read(...) and so on....

I can't speak to this exactly, but:

This trace indicates that inside ec_soe_request_alloc, it was trying to call
vscnprintf.  The only path that would do this is when kernel memory
allocation fails.

This suggests that you are either out of memory or something was making it
request an allocation for a silly number of bytes (perhaps an incorrect
parameter value somewhere).

Given that the allocation inside vscnprintf also appears to have failed
(with a crash), it's likely that you are out of memory.
