Reverting the offending patch from next-20201009 fixes the problem
(after fixing a context conflict).

d67bc7812221606e1886620a357b13f906814af7 is the tip of next-20201009.

The key difference is that the code in linux-next sets
CONFIG_CPU_SUPPORTS_HUGEPAGES=y and enables CONFIG_MIPS_HUGE_TLB_SUPPORT.
This was not previously the case, and was added/enabled with your patch.
As result, _CACHE_SHIFT and with it _PFN_SHIFT is one larger than in
mainline, which seems sufficient to trigger the problem.

Underlying change is that CONFIG_MACH_INGENIC was not set with
mips:allmodconfig prior to your patch, but it is now set.
