Jes, You mentioned that you're running on KVM... while I don't know much about how KVM works, is that load instruction being intercepted and emulated by any chance? (Considering that it looks like something that would be accessing hardware registers on a real machine.) A bug in that emulation could explain why it's behaving strangely...
Hi Matt, That has to be the reason - I was sitting here being convinced it wasn't emulated because it's not a priviledged instruction, but obviously it is given it's accessing the emulated registers. Next I need to figure out how thats handled, whether it's a KVM bug a hypervisor bug ..... all this fun we are having.
