Follow-up Comment #1:

I closed this bug. But it seems to me that I was wrong. With new defpager this
bug just changed behaviour. When I start test script memory ends after some
time. Should be mentioned that I test only ext2fs for now, so possible bugs in
tmpfs don't have any influence.

In attachments is output of vmstat that shows how it happens. 

As I wrote before, new defpager uses new pageout interface, hence when kernel
calls m_o_data_write defpager panics. But earlier it just evicted "fake"
object, until memory ended.

(file #25103, file #25104)
