Are you sure that was 4be497096c04 ?  I ask because there was a
version pushed to that git tree that did contain a list double-add
(due to a mismerge when shuffling patches).  I noticed it and fixed
it, and 4be497096c04 doesn't have that problem.  I also test with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST turned on, but this problem you hit is going to be
probabilistic because it'll depend on the timing between whatever other
list is being used and the page actually being added to the LRU.
