Hi Fengguang,

My root cause for the problem was correct. You are now finding either a
different problem that has the same signature, or what is more likely the
same issue but simply was not introduced by my change: my change reduced
number of pre-initialized pages because we init them on demand with my
work, but we could run out of them even before my change, and because of
KASLR we never know how much is needed to be pre-initialized.

Could you please test if my patch fixes the issue?

http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-access-to-uninitialized-struct-page.patch

Thank you,
Pavel
