it does not.
after a kernel panic, nothing is expected to work normally.
so if anything does still work after a kernel panic, it is by pure luck.

so it would be interessting why it comes to a kernel panic (not why it
behaves strangely after a kernel panic). and whether this kernel panic
has anything to do with drbd, or is even a bug in drbd, or not.
