It has race in invlpg code, like below sequences:

A: hold mmu_lock and get 'sp'
B: release mmu_lock and do other things
C: hold mmu_lock and continue use 'sp'

if other path freed 'sp' in stage B, then kernel will crash

This patch checks 'sp' whether lived before use 'sp' in stage C

Did you try the root_count method?  I think it's cleaner.
