It is caused by this patch. The assert() was there, but you
removed the check on cpu_x86_create() that prevented it from
being triggered.

We could apply the fix below as a separate patch before 03/10, or
just squash the fix in it. What do you think? (We can't do it as
a follow-up patch.)
If you prefer to suggest another fix, I will remove the series
from x86-next and wait for v3.
