I re-compiled with current git, and the source matches the kernel exactly 
now.  I managed to trigger the warning again (though it didn't trigger a 
crash yet).  Still got line 567

[ 6890.067085] WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 7 at arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_ds.c:1210 intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm+0x305/0x320()

   starts at address 0xffffffff8102ec38 <intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer+24>
   and ends at 0xffffffff8102ec40 <release_pebs_buffer>.


which is

562:static inline void intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer(void)
563:{
564:        struct pt_regs regs;
565:
566:        x86_pmu.drain_pebs(&regs);
567: }

which seems odd, though I guess because it is inlined?
