Hmm. I've now gotten two oopses today, all at __kmalloc+0xc3/0x1f0,
which seems to be the

  *(void **)(object + s->offset);

in get_freepointer(). Because it started happening today, I'm inclined
to blame mainly stuff I merged late yesterday.

I'm pretty sure that 4.8.0-09134-g4c1fad64eff4 is all good, in
particular, while the problems definitely happen with
4.8.0-11288-gb66484cd7470.

Much of the stuff yesterday was non-x86 archiectures (the ARM soc
stuff, avr32,parisc and power), so the main suspects are

 - Andrew's series
 - Al's splice stuff
 - Ted's ext4 changes
 - Jens' block layer changes

yes, there are other things that came in between there, not just the
architecture things, but they seem much less likely to trigger for me.

The traces don't really give me any real ideas, they look like this:

so in both cases it was filesystem stuff, but I'm not sure how much of
a pattern that is.

The trapping instruction is just a

     mov    (%rax),%rbx

and as you can see rax is garbage.

I guess I'll need to just run with slab debugging on, but I wanted to
bring this to peoples attention in case it rings a bell for somebody.
I haven't been merging anything today, partly because of this.

The problem *may* go back further, but I did run 4c1fad64eff4 for a
while without any sign of this.
