I didn't have see such BUG until now.
Could you tell me which point is isolate_lru_pages + 0x225?
You can get it with addr2line -e vmlinux -i ffffffff8108ed15 or gdb.

The culprit I think is page_count.
A month ago, Andrea pointed out and sent the patch but it seems it
isn't stable tree.

Could you test below patch?
