the bug is here:
if (!vsyscall_gtod_data.sysctl_enabled) {
                writew(SYSCALL, map1);
                writew(SYSCALL, map2);
        } else {
                writew(NOP2, map1);
                writew(NOP2, map2);
        }

when the writew(SYSCALL, map1); is done.
ffffffff80211b08:       66 c7 45 00 0f 05       movw   $0x50f,0x0(%rbp)
