Public bug reported:

Under memory pressure, my VM locks up. This has been reported upstream
though I don't know how far any solution has progressed.

Feb  6 07:15:42 vps632258 kernel: [151336.450064] z3fold: unknown buddy id 0
Feb  6 07:15:42 vps632258 kernel: [151336.454450] BUG: unable to handle kernel 
NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008

The little bit of log I managed to salvage is attached.

This has happened to two identical VMs. Unusually it has not occurred on
a third VM which is configured the same but has less RAM (fingers
crossed it won't).

Irrelevant information:
I thought the lock-ups were due to me using a BTRFS filesystem, however I 
swapped over to NILFS2 and this still occurs. The only difference seems to be 
that I am now able to grab some of the kernel output.
