To apply that patch on top of 4.1.13 I also had to apply patches listed below. So in summary appllied: http://sprunge.us/GYBb http://sprunge.us/XWUX http://sprunge.us/jZjV (Could try http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151111160336.GD1432@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx only if there is version for 4.1 tree somewhere) commit 0aaa29a56e4fb0fc9e24edb649e2733a672ca099 Author: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 6 16:28:37 2015 -0800 mm, page_alloc: reserve pageblocks for high-order atomic allocations on demand commit 974a786e63c96a2401a78ddba926f34c128474f1 Author: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 6 16:28:34 2015 -0800 mm, page_alloc: remove MIGRATE_RESERVE commit c2d42c16ad83006a706d83e51a7268db04af733a Author: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Nov 5 18:48:43 2015 -0800 mm/vmstat.c: uninline node_page_state() commit 176bed1de5bf977938cad26551969eca8f0883b1 Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Oct 15 13:01:50 2015 -0700 vmstat: explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run on [...] > > Well, what steps should we try next for isolating the problem? > > Swap is not used at all.

So left this untouched. With mentioned patches I wasn't able to reproduce memory allocation problem (still trying though).
