Indeed, this issue is separate. It was reported a few days ago by
Fengguang: http://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/9/201

Apparently this has only been seen in DEBUG_PAGEALLOC + trinity
scenarios, just like in Sasha's trace. I'm suspecting some invalidation
is missing (not sure what DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enables differently in this
aspect), as when we do the vmacache_find() the vma is bogus which
triggers the paging request error.
