Just as memo in order to remember it after the weekend: The second kernel was uploaded and did boot further but seemed to have other problems with apparmor then. Not sure whether this is related or not.
The only change was to move the i_acl and i_default_acl to the end of the inode structure, so that the i_private pointer comes to the relative offset it was before. So the corruption of that memory location might still happen but as it is used differently it does not lead to the immediate panic.
