Was the immediately previous linux-next behaving correctly?

If so, nothing has changed in the ARM32 kernel tree, so this must be
someone else's issue - code that someone else has pushed into
linux-next.

It looks to me like someone is walking the page tables incorrectly,
somewhere buried in handle_mm_fault(), because the PTE pointer is in
the upper-2k of a 4k page, which is most definitely illegal on arm32.
