Compute shaders aren't used by a plain desktop, but the VM fault 
indicates a write from the SDMA engine, which also saw a lot more use 
during that timeframe.

Since you've tried a lot of kernel variations, I'm tempted to look for 
the problem in Mesa. A couple of things you could try:

1) Run R600_DEBUG=testdma,check_vm glxgears (or any other GL app, 
really). This executes a DMA self-test. Observe whether there are any 
failures and whether you get VM faults associated to the run in dmesg. 
(The self-test runs indefinitely, until you Ctrl+C out of it.)

2) Start your desktop session with R600_DEBUG=nodma and see if that 
makes the VM faults go away. (Please make sure that the environment 
variable actually makes it through, by looking at /proc/$pid/environ, 
where $pid is the PID of kwin and other relevant processes.)

3) Do dolphin and konsole use OpenGL directly in your setting, or is it 
just the compositor?

4) Something else I notice is that the page numbers of the VM faults are 
of the form 0x001xxxxx. This suggest a 32-bit address underflow, i.e. an 
address wraps around to a very large 32-bit number. Could you please 
install a version of Mesa with assertions enabled (--enable-debug in 
./configure does the trick) and see if some check is triggered?
