That should fix the issue for you. You could also try to add
"pax_sanitize_slab=0" to the kernel command line to disable slab
sanitization.

That's: mov    0x10(%rbx),%eax

RBX contains the PaX sanitize pattern, that's the reason for the #GP.
So this is very likely the bug Daniel mentioned.

Please update to a recent grsec kernel to get this issue fixed. It's
fixed in the stable patches as well as in the test patch.
