I can still reproduce this similar failure on both AMD and Intel NUMA systems using the latest linus tree with the commit you mentioned. Unfortunately, I can't get a clear sysrq/console output of it but only a part of it (screenshot attached). It at least very easy to reproduce it for me by running LTP oom01 test for both Magny-Cours and Nehalem-EX NUMA systems. CAI Qian
