With these settings, the multiplication in ASM_VSID_SCRAMBLE could overflow, leading to incorrect results (which would cause occasional corruption of user processes under heavy load). You will need to reduce the multiplier to be less than 2^26, and it will need to be co-prime with 2^38 - 1. (Probably, the same value as we use in the 1T case would be OK.) Paul.
