Hm, so there's been a few 'dangerous' pieces of work merged yesterday-ish.

Prime suspects would be:

 triton:~/tip> gll linus..x86/pti

 0564258fb2cf: x86/pti: Leave kernel text global for !PCID
 a5df4f1f0d78: x86/pti: Never implicitly clear _PAGE_GLOBAL for kernel image
 e0bb456e3250: x86/pti: Enable global pages for shared areas
 efad2b415152: x86/mm: Do not forbid _PAGE_RW before init for __ro_after_init
 4ddee6efdcd0: x86/mm: Comment _PAGE_GLOBAL mystery
 e71e836f463d: x86/mm: Remove extra filtering in pageattr code
 64c80759408f: x86/mm: Do not auto-massage page protections
 6baf4bec02db: x86/espfix: Document use of _PAGE_GLOBAL
 8a57f4849f4f: x86/mm: Introduce "default" kernel PTE mask
 606c7193d5fb: x86/mm: Undo double _PAGE_PSE clearing
 d1440b23c922: x86/mm: Factor out pageattr _PAGE_GLOBAL setting
 ee1400dda318: Merge branch 'linus' into x86/pti to pick up upstream changes
 071ccc966ba5: x86/entry/64: Drop idtentry's manual stack switch for user entries
 9820e1c3376c: x86/uapi: Fix asm/bootparam.h userspace compilation errors

... which you could test via 0564258fb2cf: if that insta-reboots too then 
9820e1c3376c^1 is expected to work and 4 bisection steps should pinpoint the 
guilty commit ...

But there's also the syscall rework:

 triton:~/tip> gll linus..x86/asm
 c76fc9826075: syscalls/x86: Adapt syscall_wrapper.h to the new syscall stub naming convention
 d5a00528b58c: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Rename struct pt_regs-based sys_*() to __x64_sys_*()
 5ac9efa3c50d: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up compat syscall stub naming convention
 e145242ea0df: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up syscall stub naming convention
 6dc936f175cc: syscalls/x86: Extend register clearing on syscall entry to lower registers
 f8781c4a2263: syscalls/x86: Unconditionally enable 'struct pt_regs' based syscalls on x86_64
 ebeb8c82ffaf: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32
 7303e30ec1d8: syscalls/core: Prepare CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y for compat syscalls
 fa697140f9a2: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling convention for 64-bit syscalls
 1bd21c6c21e8: syscalls/core: Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y
 dfe64506c01e: x86/syscalls: Don't pointlessly reload the system call number

... which you could test via c76fc9826075: if that insta-reboots then 
dfe64506c01e^1 should be good and 4 bisection steps should suffice.

Thanks,

	Ingo
