There's a similar looking bug being debugged here:

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33012

Could you please send the before/after bootlog (in particular all memory init 
messages included) and your .config?

 before:  f005fe12b90c: x86-64: Move out cleanup higmap [_brk_end, _end) out of init_memory_mapping()
  after:  d2137d5af425: Merge branch 'linus' into x86/bootmem

I've Cc:-ed more people who might have an idea about it.

Thanks,

	Ingo
