Sorry for top-posting. I'm resurrecting an old thread here because I 
think I ran into the same problem with this assertion failing on Linux 6.7:

static inline struct page *pfn_swap_entry_to_page(swp_entry_t entry)
{
         struct page *p = pfn_to_page(swp_offset_pfn(entry));

         /*
          * Any use of migration entries may only occur while the
          * corresponding page is locked
          */
-->     BUG_ON(is_migration_entry(entry) && !PageLocked(p));

         return p;
}

It looks like this thread just fizzled two years ago. Did anything ever 
come of this?

Maybe I should add that I saw this in a pre-silicon test environment. 
I've never seen this on real hardware. Maybe something timing-sensitive.

Regards,
   Felix
