Normally it means that some piece of code has done something bad with a kernel timer. Later, a clock tick happens and the kernel falls over. We're left with no hints as to which part of the kernel misbehaved. Please try enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and see if that reveals any additional info. Apart from that, you have a lot of modules configured there. Please try disabling them all, see if the oops goes away. If it does then try re-enabling them, see if you can narrow it down to the one which is causing the timer list corruption.
