5.7RC1 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000007a0 [mod_zone_page_state+0x5/0x70]

[Mikhail Gavrilov]

Today I caught another Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI BUG.
It happened two minutes later after gnome-shell run out of memory and crashes.
(gnome-shell[931475]: JS ERROR: out of memory)
so it not surprised to me because I use
vm.overcommit_memory = 2 and  vm.overcommit_ratio = 100
and today it happened the second time.
What really surprised it (BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference,
address: 00000000000007a0) message in the kernel log.
I have not expected it so I am here and write bug report.
Maybe someone already encountered such Oops or it something new?

faddr2line said that it happened somewhere in MM subsystem, but as far
as I know, the culprit may be in a completely different place.

So I politely add mm list please do not swear if this does not apply to you.
