Can you please condense all these backtraces to the absolute minimum?

In this case the only interresting part is:

 invalid mode for closid 8
 WARNING: CPU: 88 PID: 1791 at 
[SNIP]/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_rdt_rdtgroup.c:827
 rdt_bit_usage_show

and if at all a stripped stack trace:

 seq_read
 __vfs_read
 vfs_read
 ksys_read
 do_syscall_64

But think about it whether the stack trace provides actually useful
information or not. It's a well defined call chain.

The rest of the stuff I stripped is really completely irrelevant for
describing the problem. It just occupies space and distracts.

Thanks,
