You happen to know how I get more verbose-debug outputs?

You have...

[   57.320031] kernel BUG at block/blk-core.c:2981!
[   57.320031] invalid opcode: 0000 [#3] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC

Me has...

[ 1263.965989] Kernel BUG at ffffffff81328b2b [verbose debug info unavailable]
[ 1263.966022] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y ?

Block-specific debug settings?

$ egrep -i 'block|blk' .config | egrep -i 'debug|dbg'
# CONFIG_DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP is not set
# CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT is not set
