Just to close on this thread:
https://github.com/nmenon/kernel-test-logs/tree/next-20150123 looks good
and back to old status. Thank you folks for all the help.
I just reviewed the boot logs for next-20150123 and there still seems
to be a related issue. I've been boot testing
multi_v7_defconfig+CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y kernel configurations which still
seem broken.

For example here are two boots with exynos5250-arndale, one with
multi_v7_defconfig+CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y [1] and the other with
multi_v7_defconfig[2]. You can see the kernel configurations with
CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y show the splat:

Has anyone else tested with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y that can confirm my findings?
Uggh... I missed since i was looking at non LPAE omap2plus_defconfig.

Dual A15 OMAP5432 with multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y

You are right. the issue re-appears with LPAE on :(
Apologies on missing that.
Guys, could you instrument mm_{inc,dec}_nr_pmds() with dump_stack() +
printk() of the counter and add printk() on mmap_exit() then run a simple
program which triggers the issue?
For reference, here is the patch I've applied for testing, mostly
stolen from Felipe's debug patch above in this thread.

I applied this patch to the tip of linux-next, configured for
multi_v7_defconfig and set CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y. The log for this arndale
boot can be found here [1]. For good measure, I then rebuilt the
kernel with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=n and booted the same platform again. This
log can be found here [2].

Happy hunting!
