[ 8425.915139] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at

1bb497067 PTE
80000047000ee17b
This is on a Intel machine with 36bit physical address space. The PTE
entry references
47000ee000, which is outside of it.
Add a check for the physical address space and warn/printk about the
stupid caller.
