I thought the kernel was pretty stable. My first team at twitter I think we ran into 2 or 3 kernel bugs that year. I couldn't believe it but for some problems the blaming the kernel is a real debugging step (and even the bios lol). I think I had two perf problems turn into upstream patches thanks to the kernel team.
