Could post your config somewhere please? Or maybe just the disassemble
of free_pages_and_swap_cache and tlb_flush_mmu_free should be sufficient.

I am not sure I read the report properly. It all seem to point to
free_pages_and_swap_cache resp. tlb_flush_mmu_free but I fail to see
what could be wrong there.  The last reference on the page should be
dropped in release_pages.  The given pages array shouldn't be freed
behind our back as well because mmu_gather is local to this path.
