This is a miscompilation related to static branches.

objdump shows:

ffffffff814878f8: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
./arch/x86/include/asm/jump_label.h:25
asm_volatile_goto("1:"

However, the actual instruction in memory at the time is:

0xffffffff814878f8 <+408>: jmpq 0xffffffff8148787f <free_thread_stack+287>

Which jumps to a wrong location in free_thread_stack and makes it loop.

The static branch is this:

static inline bool memcg_kmem_enabled(void)
{
return static_branch_unlikely(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key);
}

static inline void memcg_kmem_uncharge(struct page *page, int order)
{
if (memcg_kmem_enabled())
__memcg_kmem_uncharge(page, order);
}

I suspect it may have something to do with loop unrolling. It may jump
to the right location, but in the wrong unrolled iteration.
