Ok, we met a BUG_ON(!PageCompound(page)) in kfree() twice in lts4.4, we
are still debugging it.

It's different to analyses due to no vmcore, and can't be reproduced.

WARN_ON() here could help us to notice the issue.

Also is there any experience or known fix/way to debug this kinds of
issue? memory corruption?

Any suggestion will be appreciated, thanks.
