If my understanding is right, EDX contains the index we're looking up.
Which is zero. So the swp_entry we got is one bit away from being NULL.
Hmm. Have you run memtest86 or some other memory tester on the system
recently?
PS: cannot recall seeing this issue on x86_64, just 32 bit.
Laura has 64-bit instances of this.
The 64-bit backtraces reported in the bugzilla looked different,
I would consider it a different issue.
PPS: reminder
this is on a Xen VM which per https://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/man/xl.cfg.5.html#PVH-Guest-Specific-Options
has "out of sync pagetables" if that is relevant (we do not set that option,
I am unsure what default is used).
Laura also has non-Xen instances of this. They may not all be the same
bug, of course.
