A backtrace will almost certainly be necessary to figure out what this
issue is, although there is a possibility that the output of
"addr2line -e /boot/kernel/kernel.symbols 0x8:0xffffffff802d7010"
might help, assuming you've not recompiled your kernel yet.  (That
number should be the same as the "instruction pointer" shown by the
panic, but as the photo is quite blurred there's a chance I've got it
wrong, if you have a better picture of it or wrote it down then use
that)
