That's exactly right.

So you were able to get a bit farther than I did. :-)

Nice catch!

I established that the problem happened when there was a difference between
the page_offset_base values in the restore and image kernels, so my conclusion
was that the code leaked some information related to virtual addresses from
the restore kernel back to the mage one.  Which is exactly what you found. :-)

Yes, works like charm here (on top of 4.8-rc1 plus the $subject patch).

Please resend with a changelog and sign-off (BTW, your email client
damages whitespace in patches, any chance to avoid that?).

Thanks,
