Hm. If I read this correctly, we see following scenario:

 - khugepaged tries to swap in a page under mmap_sem and anon_vma lock;
 - do_swap_page() calls swapin_readahead() with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE;
 - __read_swap_cache_async() tries to allocate the page for swap in;
 - lockdep_trace_alloc() in __alloc_pages_nodemask() notices that with
   given gfp_mask we could end up in direct relaim.
 - Lockdep already knows that reclaim sometimes (e.g. in case of
   split_huge_page()) wants to take anon_vma lock on its own.

Therefore deadlock is possible.

I see two ways to fix this:

 - take anon_vma lock *after* __collapse_huge_page_swapin() in
   collapse_huge_page(): I don't really see why we need the lock
   during swapin;
 - respect FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT in do_swap_page(): add GFP_NOWAIT to
   gfp_mask for swapin_readahead() in this case.

I guess it could be beneficial to do both.

Any comments?
