Strange things can happen if you scan your /sys (for a good reason), look in your dmesg for the cause. However that is not supposed to make clamscan crash with a stack error! I would be interested to know if clamscan got killed because it scanned some "forbidden" file in /sys, or because of something else. Please run 'strace clamscan -r /sys/devices/pci0000:00', and 'clamscan --debug -r /sys/devices/pci0000:00', and attach the output to a bugreport. Mark the bug as minor severity.
