Thanks for your help on this. I have narrowed it down to commit "c22ce143d15eb288543fe9873e1c5ac1c01b69a1 x86: cache pollution aware 
__copy_from_user_ll()". This fits with the errors I'm getting, so now I need to find out if I can safely ignore this patch, or does 
it have to be modified? This is my first Linux bug in many years of simply using it, so I'm a little nervous!

My kernel .config is attached, along with lspci output.
