seems like it's caused by:

b316feb3c37ff19cddcaf1f6b5056c633193257d is the first bad commit

Adding Kiryl to the loop.

I've added a dump_mm() call when the bug happens followed by a
while (true) loop (to avoid constant reprinting of the same thing),
here's what I get:

Looking at nr_pmds, that's basically (unsigned long) -4, which tells me
we are decrementing mm->nr_pmds without incrementing first. In, when I
add:

[...]

Which confirms my suspicion. So we never increment nr_pmds, but we
decrement it. The simplest "fix" is to make mm_nr_pmds() return a signed
long (see below) and cast roundup()'s return to (signed long), but
that's not what we really want in this case because it's clear our PMD
accounting is bogus.

Kiryl, any better idea on how to balance mm_inc_nr_pmds() and
mm_dec_nr_pmds() ?
