Ho humm. I've found at least one other bug, but that one only affects
hugepages. Do you perhaps have transparent hugepages enabled? But even
then it looks quite unlikely.

I'll think about this some more. I'm not happy with how that
particular whole TLB flushing hack was done, but I need to sleep on
this.
