In both cases the PTE bit which the test modifies is in the wrong state.

No. There is something badly wrong.

PAGE_BIT_CPA_TEST is the same as PAGE_BIT_SPECIAL. And the latter is used by
the mm code to mark user space mappings. The test code only modifies the
direct mapping, i.e. the kernel side one.

So something sets PAGE_BIT_SPECIAL on a kernel PTE. And that's definitely a
bug.

These are the last entries from your syzkaller log file of the first incident:

r0 = perf_event_open(&(0x7f000000f000-0x78)={0x2, 0x78, 0x11, 0x7, 0xd537, 0x6, 0x0, 0xc1, 0xffff, 0x5, 0x0, 0x40, 0x4, 0x9, 0x5369, 0x8, 0x7, 0x8508, 0x3, 0x80, 0x0}, 0x0, 0xffffffff, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0)

Do you have log of the second one available as well?

CC'ing mm and perf folks.
