Hmm.

                struct {
                        long unsigned int _pt_pad_1;     /*     8     8 */
                        pgtable_t  pmd_huge_pte;         /*    16     8 */
                        long unsigned int _pt_pad_2;     /*    24     8 */
                        union {
                                struct mm_struct * pt_mm; /*    32     8 */
                                atomic_t pt_frag_refcount; /*    32     4 */
                        };                               /*    32     8 */
                        spinlock_t ptl;                  /*    40    72 */
                };                                       /*     8   104 */

#if ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS
                        spinlock_t *ptl;
#else
                        spinlock_t ptl;
#endif

something has disabled ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS when it ought to be enabled.

#if USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS
#define ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS     (SPINLOCK_SIZE > BITS_PER_LONG/8)
#else
#define ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS     0
#endif

Oh.  This is Anshuman's fault.
