My reading of the x86 _PAGE_BIT_* macros show that this is not present.

And this could be caused by CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, though kmemleak should not try to access such memory.

I have a couple of questions:
1. Are there any messages prior to the dump you posted, like kmemleak getting disabled? 2. Can you still reproduce the problem with !CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC?
Thanks,
