The quota groups are on and the symptoms match the known problem when
there are lots of backrefs.
krealloc is on the stack although not mentioned explicitly, called
through ulist_add_merge. The allocation order is 6 from the OOM report,
means that somebody wanted a large congiguous chunk of memory, which is
what the krealloc did and failed. Kernel memory is fragmented and this
kind of allocations is hard to satisfy in the long run.
