Well *that* took a while to .config bisect. I probably should have found
it sooner, but CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y is what broke me. Without that,
everything is lovely! :)

I can reproduce it now with:

$ make defconfig kvm_guest.config
$ ./scripts/config -e CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING -e CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK
