The newer kernel may have some change/fix that prevents this bug, as I
haven't seen any reports of this (from google, at least) on any other
kernel.  Plus, the unusual requirement of the memory having to end at
not a multiple of 2M.

Awesome, I'll set up a vm with that flavor to see if I can reproduce
this, or at least reproduce the problematic zone setup.  Thanks!
