I've very little to add on this, but wanted to report that I did check
to see where it had crashed in valid_swaphandles(): it was on the line
if (end > si->max)
which that means si was NULL i.e. the swap entry on which it faulted had
an invalid swp_type. It appears that the page table was corrupt on
return from resume.
