I agree it's probably going to bisect to 338a16ba15495 since it's the
cond_resched() at the line number reported, but I think there must be
something else going on. I think the list of locks held by khugepaged is
correct because it matches with the implementation. The preempt_count(),
as suggested by Andrew, does not. If this is reproducible, I'd like to
know what preempt_count() is.
