No matter whether slub/slab is selected someone gets a page and moves/adds its .lru head to some list after being in the deffered_pages list yet -- this breaks the deffered_pages list and loops forever in list_for_each (unless LIST_DEBUG is selected, which produces a BUG).
Any ideas who could be the one pushing the page to some other list?
