Yes, I was testing my tmpfs changes, and saw it on i386 yesterday
morning.  Same trace as Dave's (including khugepaged, which may or
may not be relevant), aside from the i386/x86_64 differences.

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 6b6b6b87

I needed to move forward with other work on that laptop, so just
jotted down the details to come back to later.  It came after one
hour of building swapping load in memcg, I've not tried again since.

Yes, the inlining in my kernel was different,
so collapse_huge_page() showed up in my backtrace.
