Still no crashes seen with 4.4.0-79-generic (and newer versions). Would
consider this fixed then.

Title:
Execute NX-protected page - 4.4.0-78-generic - kernel panic
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
After upgrading from 4.4.0-77 to 4.4.0-78 I started getting kernel
panics.
The crashes do not happen immediately, but have happened generally
after a couple of minutes, sometimes more.
After enabling linux-crashdump stuff, I managed to extract this dmesg.

I've upgraded other machines as well, and only this particular VM
shows this behaviour.
I have a crash dump, but I haven't looked into the contents yet.
Getting the dmesg was already a pain in the behind.
The VM this happens on is:
- a KVM guest
- x86_64, 4 cores
- 16gb ram
