Jiri, Holger, would you be able to try

and see if your issues still exist?
Just in time! Not 2 minutes ago I finished rebuilding 6.4.2 + the last version of
your patches on a second machine (old Intel Sandy Bridge workstation) to be my
crash test dummy. I removed the BROKEN dependency in mm/Kconfig, manually set
PER_VMA_LOCK=y and ... it seems to work?! Boots fine, Firefox seems to work
(but no exhaustive tests yet). I will also rerun a few reboot laps, just to
exercise this a bit harder and see if something comes up.
Tomorrow I'll also try again on my Zen2 Thinkpad and will report back.
Fingers crossed!
Thanks! This is promising.
Indeed it was, and still is. :)
This morning I wrangled 6.4.2 + v4 of the patches into all my machines,
enabled PER_VMA_LOCK=y, removed BROKEN and so far everything has been humming
along just fine. One machine has been compiling for several hours without issue.
My Zen2 thinkpad - which was previously really unhappy with enabled PER_VMA_LOCK -
has booted a few times without hiccup, and Firefox has been happily roaming the
interwebs for several hours as well. \o/
cheers
Holger
