Thanks for the all the additional information! I was able to trigger 
the crash by compiling the driver as a module (i.e. 
`CONFIG_SGX_JZ4780=m`), it appears that the default letux_defconfig 
doesn't do this. I am now seeing the same behavior, and trying to debug 
it. I don't believe `OSAcquirePhysPageAddr` is causing the issue here, 
I tried taking the changes from `1.14.3699939` and that didn't help. I 
am going to figure out which value triggers the paging exception and 
work backwards from there to see whats going wrong.

Also I did have a case where it decided to boot up fine without an 
error, and I saw the same results with `pvrsrvctrl` reporting that it 
was happy with the KMOD and then triggering a kernel crash.
