That's fine, it's good to find bugs :)

Sure. So this patch, in addition to Hugh's patch to remove the BUG_ON(), does
avoid the crash above (remove_migration_pte()).
I dropped Hugh's patch, as he has decided he doesn't like it, and added the
following hunk instead:
diff --git a/include/linux/mempolicy.h b/include/linux/mempolicy.h

Which seems to be what Hugh was referring to in his mail - correct me if I'm
wrong Hugh.
With your patch and the above hunk I can run trinity happily for a while,
whereas without it crashes almost immediately.
So with the above hunk you can add my tested-by.
cheers
