It bombs while accessing a per-cpu counter:

(kgdb) frame 11
#11 0xffffffff8054518e in tcp_input (m=<value optimized out>, off0=Cannot access
memory at address 0x14)
at counter.h:45
45              __asm __volatile("addq\t%1,%%gs:(%0)"

This seems to be a fallout of the recent UMA changes and its interaction
with the per-cpu counter(9) system.

Adding in and handing over to Gleb and Jeff as they touched this area last.
