Something kooky is happening.

Clearly init_bio() is not passing in a NULL `name' parameter. Maybe the
backtrace is screwed due to dopey gcc autoinlining and the bad caller is
really biovec_init_slabs(). Try removing the
__cacheline_aligned_mostly_readonly from the declaration of bvec_slabs[].

Please tell us what gcc and binutils versions you're using.
