The crash looks like its cr3 related, which I believe Peter Zijlstra
did a restructuring of that code to not let it be an issue anymore.
I'll have to look deeper. The rework may be too intrusive to backport,
but we do have other work arounds for this issue if that would be
acceptable for backporting.

I've seen that too and couldn't bisect it down to any such commit. I'm
not sure if it is even a bug per-se, because in my test suite, I've
commented out the warning, and the system still remains stable.
