Hi Karl,

Thanks a lot for the report and I think I understand the issue. We are not
handling the case of folio migration causing folio having objcg different
different from its node which breaks the assumption memcg_reparent_objcgs() have
for its locking lru of child and parent per-node LRUs.

Thanks for the reproducer and I was able to reproduce with inceased workers. I
will send out the fixes soon.

thanks,
Shakeel
