Ho humm..
I'm not convinced this is related.

That decodes to
11: e8 89 b7 15 00 callq 0x15b79f # radix_tree_lookup_slot
16: 48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax
19: 48 89 c6 mov %rax,%rsi
1c: 74 41 je 0x5f
1e: 48 8b 18 mov (%rax),%rbx #
21: 48 85 db test %rbx,%rbx
24: 74 1f je 0x45
26: f6 c3 03 test $0x3,%bl
29: 75 3c jne 0x67
2b:* 8b 53 1c mov 0x1c(%rbx),%edx <-- trapping instruction
2e: 85 d2 test %edx,%edx
30: 74 d9 je 0xb
where %rbx is 0x0200000000000000. That looks like it could be a
single-bit error, and should have been zero.
It's the "atomic_read(&page->counter)" which is part of
"page_cache_get_speculative()" as far as I can tell, and it's the
"page" pointer that is that odd (non-pointer) value. The fact that
%ecx contains the value "-6" makes me wonder if there was a -ENXIO
somewhere, though.
None of it looks all that much related to whether the i915 driver uses
GFP_NO_KSWAPD or not, though.
