I thought I had updated this. But I guess I forgot to update on this mail
thread...

I tested this for quite some time in a loop and also gave it a overnight run,
but I couldn't hit this issue. I had kept low memory size guest, so that we
could see more reclaim activity (which I also ensured by doing perf trace to
see
if we are going over that path or not while test was running).

I am not sure whether this could be a timing issue or what. Maybe if you could
share your defconfig, I could give a try with that on my setup once.
