Hello,

sorry for possible top-posting, the same issue appears on at least
3.10 LTS series. The original thread is at
http://marc.info/?l=kvm&m=14043742300901. The necessary components for
failure to reappear are a single running kvm guest and mounted large
thp: hugepagesz=1G (seemingly the same as in initial report). With
default 2M pages everything is working well, the same for 3.18 with 1G
THP. Are there any obvious clues for the issue?

Thanks!
