It turns out alpha does not support cpu hotplug (no CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU),
and parisc will use &init_mm for idle tasks of secondary CPUs as in,

smp_callin()
  smp_cpu_init()

/* Initialise the idle task for this CPU */	
mmgrab(&init_mm);
current->active_mm = &init_mm;
BUG_ON(current->mm);
enter_lazy_tlb(&init_mm, current);

I have to modify your code slightly (below) to pass compilation, but then it will
panic during cpu offline for some reasons,
