It took a night but I was able to trigger crash which this patch fixes.

Test case:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>

#define MB (1024UL*1024)
#define SIZE (4*MB)
#define BASE ((void *)0x400000000000)

int main()
{
	char *x1, *x2;

	for (;;) {
		x1 = mmap(BASE, 2 * SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
			MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_POPULATE | MAP_FIXED,
			-1, 0);
                if (x1 == MAP_FAILED)
                        perror("x1"), exit(1);
		x2 = mremap(x1 + SIZE, SIZE, SIZE,
				MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				x1 + 2 * SIZE);
                if (x2 == MAP_FAILED)
                        perror("x2"), exit(1);

		if (!fork())
			return 0;

		if (!fork()) {
			if (!fork())
				return 0;

			mprotect(x2, 4096, PROT_NONE);
			return 0;
		}

		x2 = mremap(x2, SIZE, SIZE,
				MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				x1 + SIZE);
		if (x2 == MAP_FAILED)
			perror("x2"), exit(1);
		munmap(x1, SIZE);
		munmap(x2, SIZE);
		while (waitpid(-1, NULL, WNOHANG) > 0);
	}
	return 0;
}
