Sorry, I think I booted the wrong version at the last step of bisection.
It was actually the previous commit on the 3.2.y branch, which was
commit 72212675d1c96f5db8ec6fb35701879911193158 upstream ("x86, 64bit,
mm: Mark data/bss/brk to nx") that introduced the regression. I intend
to revert both of these.

One of the nice things about standards is that there are so many of them.
