a quick google on this showed somewhere
at bootmem.c any ideas on this or where
this might be caused besides fixmap?
(or is fixmap the main location?);

__native_set_fixmap() -> set_pte_vaddr() -> set_pte_vaddr_pud() ->
fill_pte() -> spp_getpage() -> alloc_bootmem_pages() -> panic().

so something is using __native_set_fixmap
that's hitting some memory address then
set_fixmap_nocache(ohci1394_dma=early)
fires off hitting the same?
