The Linux man page says the mprotect addr must be a valid pointer or

It's not clear what the mprotect call is trying to protect but it is
definitely not page aligned.
It's trying to protect the new stack for the thread, which is
obviously in the wrong spot.
Good news.

I have fixed tst-cputimer1.
You also wrote "OK, fixed the kernel." So where an when will these fixes
show up?
Unfortunately I hosed my setup and I didn't have git installed to make
a proper diff so here's a diff versus a somewhat recent tree.

  WIP patch: http://www.parisc-linux.org/~carlos/futex.diff
Half of your diff (e.g. the int->u32 conversion) is already in upstream. I've
rediffed it against Linus tree and fixed some of the whitespace damage.

+	if (!ret)
+		if (val == oldval)
+			ret = put_user(newval, uaddr);

This bit is ugly.
