Wait, Thomas, I might be wrong, but per-cpu is initialized to the pointer,
the memory for this estack_pages has not yet been allocated, no?

I drop the left of your reply. True, I agreed with anything you said.
You know I didn't manage to dive more into this problem yesterday
but if time permits I'll continue today. It is easily triggering
under kvm (the kernel I'm building is almost without modules so
I simply upload bzImage into the guest). FWIW, the config I'm
using is https://gist.github.com/cyrillos/7cd5d2510a99af8ea872f07ac6f9095b
