I'm seeing a regression in my QEMU based NVDIMM testing system, and I
bisected it to this commit.

The behavior I'm seeing is that heavy I/O to simulated NVDIMMs in
multiple virtual machines causes the QEMU guests to receive double
faults, crashing them.  Here's an example backtrace:

This appears to be independent of both the guest kernel version (this
backtrace has v4.15.0-rc5, but I've seen it with other kernels) as
well as independent of the host QMEU version (mine happens to be
qemu-2.10.1-2.fc27 in Fedora 27).

The new behavior is due to this commit being present in the host OS
kernel.  Prior to this commit I could fire up 4 VMs and run xfstests
on my simulated NVDIMMs, but after this commit such testing results in
multiple of my VMs crashing almost immediately.

Reproduction is very simple, at least on my development box.  All you
need are a pair of VMs (I just did it with clean installs of Fedora
27) with NVDIMMs.  Here's a sample QEMU command to get one of these:

# qemu-system-x86_64 /home/rzwisler/vms/Fedora27.qcow2 -m
4G,slots=3,maxmem=512G -smp 12 -machine pc,accel=kvm,nvdimm
-enable-kvm -object
memory-backend-file,id=mem1,share,mem-path=/home/rzwisler/nvdimms/nvdimm-1,size=17G
-device nvdimm,memdev=mem1,id=nv1

In my setup my NVDIMMs backing files (/home/rzwisler/nvdimms/nvdimm-1)
are being created on a filesystem on an SSD.

After these two qemu guests are up, run write I/Os to the resulting
/dev/pmem0 devices.   I've done this with xfstests and fio to get the
error, but the simplest way is just:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/pmem0

The double fault should happen in under a minute, definitely before
the DDs run out of space on their /dev/pmem0 devices.

I've reproduced this on multiple development boxes, so I'm pretty sure
it's not related to a flakey hardware setup.

Thanks,
