When migrating an anonymous private page to a ZONE_DEVICE private page,
the source page->mapping and page->index fields are copied to the
destination ZONE_DEVICE struct page and the page_mapcount() is
increased. This is so rmap_walk() can be used to unmap and migrate the
page back to system memory.
However, try_to_unmap_one() computes the subpage pointer from a swap pte
which computes an invalid page pointer and a kernel panic results such
as:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffea1fffffffc8
Currently, only single pages can be migrated to device private memory so
no subpage computation is needed and it can be set to "page".

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
