Subject: kvm segfaults and bad page state in 3.4.0

Hi,

I'm running lots of kvm instances for doing kernel boot tests.
Unfortunately the test system itself is not stable enough, I got scary
errors in both kvm and the host kernel. Like this.

The same host kernel, in another test box:

Please drop me hints if I can help debugging it (a week later, after
returning from LinuxCon Japan), thank you.
