DTrace panics kernel on M1 Mac (11.2.3)

Keep on getting kernel panic when performing several DTrace-based tasks, e.g. opensnoop. The exact same commands do not panic on my Intel Mac, which is also on Big Sur. Have to note that this is not something new; I have experienced this for a few months now, over different versions of Big Sur.

Typical crash report:

panic(cpu 4 caller 0xfffffe0027f2104c): Kernel data abort. at pc 0xfffffe0027738934, lr 0x6f927e00278955c8 (saved state: 0xfffffe30b33baf10)
