It's actually tripping over this in __phys_addr:

     VIRTUAL_BUG_ON((x > y) || !phys_addr_valid(x));

I dumped out a few of the variables too:

[    1.161406] __phys_addr() x: 0x000078009d3c6000
[    1.166567] __phys_addr() origx: 0x000000009d3c6000
[    1.171832] __phys_addr() y: 0x000000011d3c6000
[    1.176999] __phys_addr() __START_KERNEL_map: 0xffffffff80000000
[    1.183841] __phys_addr() PAGE_OFFSET: 0xffff880000000000
[    1.189993] __phys_addr() x valid: 0

So it looks like the root cause is a physical address getting pass in in
the first place instead of a virtual.
