When you say the system "freezes", but also that you get a "kernel panic", I'm not sure how the system entered the kdump process, i.e., was panic() or BUG() called inside the kernel, or did you enter sysrq-c? Anyway, enter "log" to get the console log, where the final trace should still exist. In any case, depending upon how the system entered kdump, the current context that was running may not be of any interest. Do a "bt -a" to see what's happening on the other cpus at the time of the shutdown, or a "foreach bt" to get the traces of all tasks. If the current task *is* the one you're interested in, but it still doesn't seem "right", enter "bt -t" or "bt -T" to get a dump of all text return addresses on the stack.
