Comment:

 Reviewed the kernel messages.

 Agreed it has nothing to do with camera.  The process reading /proc files
 is running cp(1), and the oops is apparently having no effect.  I don't
 think any of the shipped activities use cp(1), but I could be wrong.

 It needs to be reproduced before we can investigate further.

 I was unable to reproduce it by cp(1) or tar(1) reading from /proc, so
 there doesn't appear to be a systemic issue.

 On the unrelated symptom of cursor flicker, I didn't find it dreadful,
 though it was easy to reproduce.  If it is a problem please use a separate
 ticket.
