After backing them out, I got 18 hours of uptime so far.

This could just be dumb luck, or it could be some slub vs. kswapd
interaction.  Or maybe I simply am not triggering the original
bug any more because kswapd is now doing all the work, but may
still be able to trigger it under more memory pressure...

Either way, since this could still be dumb luck, I'll let you
guys know if/when I see a next crash :)
