Thanks for the report. This looks the same as #966846, which we have
pending fixed in the packaging repository.

If you can expose the fixes for testing, then there are temporary and
inofficial 4.19.142-1 builds at
https://people.debian.org/~carnil/tmp/linux/4.19.142-1/ .

Regards,

Thank you for the hint; indeed it looks the same as #966846. I have
tried the kernel you have prepared and I have not experienced any crash
in the last 23 hours (it was crashing more often recently). I will keep
you informed if a crash is occurring.
