[ various crashes under load with current git ]

I did have CONFIG_COMPACTION off for my latest reproduce.  The last two
have been corruption on the page->lru lists, maybe that'll help narrow
our bisect pool down.
I've reverted 744ed1442757767ffede5008bb13e0805085902e, and
d8505dee1a87b8d41b9c4ee1325cd72258226fbc and the run has lasted longer
than any runs in the past.
Confirmed that reverting these patches makes the problem unreproducible
for the many_dd's + fsmark for at least an hour here.
I'll give this a few hours but they seem the most related to my various
crashes so far.
