Using 314b658 with amdgpu, starting sway and firefox causes "BUG: Bad rss-counter state" and "BUG: non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm" to start filling dmesg, and then closing programs causes more BUGs and hangs, and then everything grinds to a halt (can't start more programs, can't even reboot through systemd).
Using master and reverting that branch up to that point fixes the problem.
I'm using a Ryzen 1600 and AMD Radeon RX 480 on an ASRock B450 Pro4 board with IOMMU enabled.

Hmm. That sounds bad. Could you send a copy of your config?
Meanwhile, I'll prepare a small patch that disables the non-vmwgfx huge_fault() until we've figured out what's happening.

If you could try the attached patch, that'd be great!

Yeah, that works too. Kernel config sent off-list.

Sure. Shouldn't we fix it properly though?

It's still enabled for vmwgfx for which it is reasonably well tested and where I can't see any such errors.
The code we remove with this patch enables huge page-table entries in some circumstances for other drivers, but given the problems you're seeing for amdgpu, it's better to enable this on a per-driver basis after thorough testing. Since I don't have amdgpu hardware I'm not sure what it's doing differently, and can't debug the issue properly.
