Since page->mapping is vacant in the pages which used by kernel(drivers etc)
Have it record current context to help tracking the page's owner in system
memory dump.

There are some places to modify as 'free_pages_check' for the formal

You didn't actually try this patch, did you? See page_expected_state().
Or, I don't know, just boot it.
