hm, i'm seeing this even with the cpus4096 bits removed.

It _seems_ to trigger when i add these two commits:

  71ff49d: x86: with the last user gone, remove set_pte_present
  b40c757: x86/32: no need to use set_pte_present in set_pte_vaddr

but i'm not completely sure it's related, i tried a bisection and it 
showed heisenbug properties.

Might have come from upstream, that saw some IDR changes recently.
