With this patch in the tree, some of my qemu tests (those with PAE enabled)
report several WARNING backtraces.

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/pti.c:256 pti_clone_pgtable+0x298/0x2dc

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/pti.c:394 pti_clone_pgtable+0x29a/0x2dc

The backtraces are repeated multiple times.

Please see

https://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-x86-master/builds/253/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

for complete logs.

Bisect log is attached. Reverting this patch fixes the problem.

Thanks,
Guenter
