Subject: arm64: unhandled level 0 translation fault

Hi Catalin, Will, et al,

During userspace (Debian jessie NFS root) boot on arm64:

rpcbind[1083]: unhandled level 0 translation fault (11) at 0x00000008,
esr 0x92000004, in dash[aaaaadf77000+1a000]

Sometimes it happens with other processes, but the main address, esr, and
pstate values are always the same.

I regularly run arm64/for-next/core (through bi-weekly renesas-drivers
releases, so the last time was two weeks ago), but never saw the issue
before until today, so probably v4.15-rc1 is OK.
Unfortunately it doesn't happen during every boot, which makes it
cumbersome to bisect.

My first guess was UNMAP_KERNEL_AT_EL0, but even after disabling that,
and even without today's arm64/for-next/core merged in, I still managed to
reproduce the issue, so I believe it was introduced in v4.15-rc2 or
v4.15-rc3.

Once, when the kernel message above wasn't shown, I got an error from
userspace, which may be related:
*** Error in `/bin/sh': free(): invalid pointer: 0x0000aaaadd970988 ***

Do you have a clue?
Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
