Subject: Re: Lockup in wait_transaction_locked under memory pressure

I couldn't find any particular OOM which stands out, here how a typical 
one looks like: 

alxc9 kernel: Memory cgroup out of memory (oom_kill_allocating_task): Kill process 9703 (postmaster) score 0 or sacrifice child

The backtrace for other processes is exactly the same.
