I guess this matches the following bugon in your kernel:
        VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!lrucare && PageLRU(oldpage), oldpage);

so the oldpage is on the LRU list already. I am completely unfamiliar
with 965GM but is the page perhaps shared with somebody with a different
gfp mask requirement (e.g. userspace accessing the memory via mmap)? So
the other (racing) caller didn't need to move the page and put it on
LRU.

If yes we need to tell shmem_replace_page to do the lrucare handling.
