Adding 32k swap on swapfile31. Priority:-34 extents:1 across:32k
Adding 32k swap on swapfile32. Priority:-35 extents:1 across:32k

That should not work at all. It should bomb out at 30 swap files with page migration on.

The implication here is that there can only be 32 entries in-toto ... it
feels like we have at least 33/34 as the machine has swap by default ...
more to look at!

Either way, random panics are not the appropriate response ;-)

if it can't cope with that, why isn't it failing the request ???
