just FYI
the issue does not always happen but the rate on 61b205f579 is not low,
while we didn't observe it happen on parent commit.

also please permit me to quote our internal analysis by Zhengjun (cced)
(Thanks a lot, Zhengjun)

"the commit has the potential to cause the issue.
It replaces " kmap_atomic" to " kmap_local_page".

Most of the two API is the same, except for " kmap_atomic" disable preemption and cannot sleep.
I check the issue happened when there is a preemption,  in FBC " kmap_local_page",
the  preemption is enabled,  the issue may happen."
