Can you test if attached patch helps ? I am having trouble reproducing this
from inside a vm.
My theory is that 2 concurrent CPU page fault happens. First one manage to
start the migration back to system memory but second one see the migration
special entry and call migration_entry_wait() which increase page refcount
and this happen before first one check page refcount are ok for migration.
For regular migration such scenario is ok as the migration bails out and
because page is CPU accessible there is no need to kick again the migration
for other thread that CPU fault to migrate.
I am looking into how i can change migration_entry_wait() not to refcount
pages. Let me know if the attached patch helps.
Thank you
Jerome
