I grepped logs for the last week. There's also a lot of non-obvious
causes of page alloc failures. (Possibly because free memory had been
filled with dirty huge pages), but here we can't even successfully
alloc a single order 0 page.
Traces from separate runs, on various kernels from the last week.
