Vlastimil,
it turns out that the "this patch" is entirely a red herring, and the
problem comes and goes randomly with just some code layout issues. See
http://server.roeck-us.net/qemu/parisc64-6.10.3/
for more detail, particularly you'll see the "log.bad.gz" with the full log.
See also
https://lore.kernel.org/all/87y15a4p4h.ffs@tglx/
for this thread.
I don't think this is really a slub issue, since it only happens on
parisc, but maybe you can see what would make parisc different, and
what could possibly make it all timing- or layout-dependent.
