Yeah, this is because of a change that was backed out because it was limiting vmalloc= on non-hughmem kernels to be ~500M instead of ~700M or so, and we couldn't find any bug related to it or figure out quite why it was there. It's back in in the build I did today, and I'm advising the customers who care to bite the bullet and run hughmem. So this should be fixed in tomorrow's tree.
Also, you should be able to workaround and get your machine to boot by going into the grub "uppermem" command
