No problem. If there won't be time in the next month or so I guess we
should close the bug and reopen when someone else experiences it or it
happens again. If you or anyone else experiencing this ends up in a
position to reproduce it, in addition to trying a recent kernel it
would be interesting to try the debugging patch from [1] (the
surrounding thread is about a different bug that was introduced in a
newer kernel, but the patch makes the kernel print the right
information).
Also, it's possible (though unlikely) that a description of the
problem (plus hardware information they ask about in follow-up) could
be enough to ring a bell for the Linux memory management subsystem
maintainers; feel free to ask them at linux-mm@kvack.org (no
subscription required and the convention is always to reply-to-all
there), cc-ing this bug.
Sorry I have no better insights.
