Ok, I reproduced this, but it's definitely caused *not* by 243b72aae28.
This WARN is also reproducible on the parent commit 5b1ad68f9b.
The only difference here is that on parent one needs dozens of seconds to reach
this WARNING.
It seems that this time difference somehow confused the robot.
As for the warning itself, it caused by kprobes. krpobe code use module_alloc()
which
creates these RWX mappings.
I'm not sure how to fix this as AFAIK kprobes actually need RWX mapping.
