Thanks for the bisect.

This is an underflow that happens with memcg enabled but memcg-swap
disabled - the memsw counter is not accounted, but then unaccounted.

Andrew, can you please put this in to fix the uncharge rewrite patch
mentioned above?

Subject: [patch] mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API fix

It's not entirely clear whether do_swap_account or PCG_MEMSW is the
authoritative answer to whether a page is swap-accounted or not.  This
currently leads to the following memsw counter underflow when swap
accounting is disabled:

Don't set PCG_MEMSW when swap accounting is disabled, so that
uncharging only has to look at this per-page flag.

mem_cgroup_swapout() could also fully rely on this flag, but as it can
bail out before even looking up the page_cgroup, check do_swap_account
as a performance optimization and only sanity test for PCG_MEMSW.
