Subject: !PageLocked from shmem charge path hits VM_BUG_ON with 4.4-rc4

Hi,
This is the second time I have experienced X server hang with 4.4-rc4
kernel. The first time (on last Friday) I thought I just crashed my machine
because I was playing with systemtap so I haven't really looked closer
but today I've noticed this again without any nasty things going on and
it was actually
VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page), page)
hit from mem_cgroup_try_charge when charging shmem page. The full
backtrace is:

So this seems to be:
		/* We have to do this with page locked to prevent races */
		lock_page(page);
		if (!PageSwapCache(page) || page_private(page) != swap.val ||
		    !shmem_confirm_swap(mapping, index, swap)) {
			error = -EEXIST;	/* try again */
			goto unlock;
		}
		if (!PageUptodate(page)) {
			error = -EIO;
			goto failed;
		}
		wait_on_page_writeback(page);

                if (shmem_should_replace_page(page, gfp)) {
                        error = shmem_replace_page(&page, gfp, info, index);
                        if (error)
                                goto failed;
                }

                error = mem_cgroup_try_charge(page, current->mm, gfp, &memcg);
                if (!error) {
                        error = shmem_add_to_page_cache(page, mapping, index,
                                                swp_to_radix_entry(swap));

So we are explicitly locking the page and shmem_replace_page locks
the new page as well. It seems like the page got unlocked while we
were waiting for the writeback or something like that. So far I do not
suspect i915.  But it is worth mentioning that the BUG_ON was hit there
twice with the exactly same code path so who knows. Maybe this is just
because it is the only major user of shmem on my system...

I didn't get to investigate any further or try to reproduce it again yet
but I will go on debugging.  Maybe this ring bells.

Config is attached.

I am currently running with the following on top of rc4 to see whether
this is really related to waiting on the writeback.
