1. info threads
2. Find the index value that matches the tid in question (in the above
   spin lock panic, that'd be tid 100109).  The index value will be
   the first number shown on the left
3. thread {index}
4. bt

If this doesn't work, alternatively you can try (from the beginning)
"thread apply all bt" and provide the output from that.  (It will be
quite lengthy, and at this point I think tid 100109 is the one of
interest in this crash, based on what Andriy said earlier)
