Hugh reports: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!(pc->flags & PCG_MEM)) mm/memcontrol.c:6680! page had count 1 mapcount 0 mapping anon index 0x196 flags locked uptodate reclaim swapbacked, pcflags 1, memcg not root mem_cgroup_migrate < move_to_new_page < migrate_pages < compact_zone < compact_zone_order < try_to_compact_pages < __alloc_pages_direct_compact < __alloc_pages_nodemask < alloc_pages_vma < do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page < handle_mm_fault < __do_page_fault mem_cgroup_migrate() assumes that a page is only migrated once and then freed immediately after. However, putting the page back on the LRU list and dropping the isolation refcount is not done atomically. This allows a PFN-based migrator like compaction to isolate the page, see the expected anonymous page refcount of 1, and migrate the page once more. Catch pages that have already been migrated and abort migration gracefully.
