I think we tracked it down to the "eptad" kernel option on Broadwell processors.
Setting "kvm-intel.eptad=0" turned it off.

I have Linux host running as a kvm hypervisor. It's running CentOS. (So
the
kernel is based on 3.10 but with loads of stuff backported by RedHat.) I
realize this is not a mainline kernel, but I was wondering if anyone is
aware of
similar issues that had been fixed in mainline.
Hey, dunno if you're looking for commit
6dec97dc929 ("mm: move_ptes -- Set soft dirty bit depending on pte
type")

CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY doesn't exist in our kernel so I don't think this is
the issue. Thanks for the suggestion though.
