 Do you build your test module as a part of a kernel+modules build or do you
 build it in isolation?  If the latter, then this could be a known obscure problem.

 A standalone module build doesn't get some important definitions from kernel
 config (e.g. via  opt_global.h) and can be in a serious disagreement with the
 kernel.  In particular, if a kernel is built with SMP option, but a module build
 doesn't have SMP defined, then they will have different definitions of
 PA_LOCK_COUNT and thus would work on different actual locks when manipulating
 the same page.
