The PG18 Debian package is still carrying the contrib complement of
this patch (see attachment).

Should that be addressed before 18.0?

Work around a Linux bug in move_pages

In 32-bit mode on 64-bit kernels, move_pages() does not correctly advance to
the next chunk. Work around by not asking for more than 16 pages at once so
move_pages() internal loop is not executed more than once.
