From: Rik van Riel <[email protected]> Normally task_numa_work scans over a fairly small amount of memory, but it is possible to run into a large unpopulated part of virtual memory, with no pages mapped. In that case, task_numa_work can run for a while, and it may make sense to reschedule as required.
