Did you say that you have a few more examples of this?

I would be really interested if it's always python or always the same
shared library, or always file-backed memory, always the same bit,
etc...  From the vm_flags, I'd guess that this is the "rw-p" part of the
file mapping.

The bit that gets set is really weird.  It's bit 40.  I could definitely
see scenarios where we might set the dirty bit, or even NX for that
matter, or some *bit* that we mess with in software.  It's not even
close to the boundary where it could represent a swapoffset=1 or swapfile=1.

It's also unlikely to be _PAGE_PSE having gone missing from the PMD
since it's in the middle of a file-backed mapping and the PMD is
obviously pointing to a 4k page.

If I had to put money on it, I'd guess it's a hardware bit flip, or less
likely, a rogue software bit flip.  But, more examples will hopefully
shed some more light.
