After reverted this patch, it is no longer possible to reproduce a bug under memory pressure
with swapping on linux-next 20200306,

The trace is a bit off for some reasons, but it is basically,

kernel BUG at include/linux/page-flags.h:317!

end_swap_bio_write()
   SetPageError(page)
       VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(1 && PageCompound(page)) 

The page was allocated in,

do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page()
