@piggy, a couple of points.[list][*]my i686 kernel has CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y and CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y and yet I don't have the problem.
Someone always said this here, then explicit requests of more details were never satisfied. Just out of curiosity, which version of the kernel? Virtual or real machine? Phisycal memory installed in the machine?
It's the hardware mentioned in post 8833963 earlier.

Here's another tack: can you construct a bare-bones virtual machine that exhibits the issue ? If you give complete, detailed instructions on how to build and spin up such a machine, a kernel developer might be able to reproduce the bug. Then you're done.

(I myself can't be of much help, having never run a VM.)

No bug for your configuration. As I wrote million times now =< 1024 MB is not affected by the big bug.
