The second crash is just some overzealous asserting. Easily fixed but also
not very interesting, unfortunately.

The two main backtraces are exactly the same bug as you saw last time.
Except in this case you have bogus nonsense in a pair of L2 pagetable
entries, whereas last time the garbage was in an L3 entry.

My best guess just now, seeing as noone else has reported ever seeing this,
is that maybe you have a bad driver or hardware corrupting memory? Obviously
that's a bit of a stab in the dark though.

Have you seen this particular type of crash on multiple different machines?
If so, are they different types of machine?
