To Jussi...

as the original reporter of this bug, I think it has no hope of being fixed 
even if you provide all the relevant kernel commits.
Which is bad, because the crash is serious and happens 'late' when may kernel 
data structures may have been written over, with potential data loss.

I tried to provide pointers to all the relevant LKML entries and the
only replies I got was that I should have run apport-collect, which was
a bit frustrating. I hope that your list, that is much more organized
than my posts, has a better success.

Besides that, the bad news is that even on trusty (that has kernel
3.14), bluetooth dun is broken. At least here the issue is mere lack of
functionality, no crashes. This is due to:

- another kernel bug (it is probably http://lists.openwall.net/linux-
kernel/2014/02/10/54).  This prevents modemmanager from seeing rfcomm0
as a modem. Tried mainline 3.15.6 and works fine.

- a bug in modemmanager/networkmanager.  This keeps rfcomm0 open when
the connection is dropped and causes modemmanager to keep asking the
bluetooth phone about the signal quality.  When you try to connect
again, the connection fails. This is easily worked around by "service
modemmanager restart".

Probably a new bug should be opened on launchpad against the kernel, wrt
the issue of parenting rfcomm0.  This fix should be easy to backport.
But I am a bit discouraged.
