I assume the usual suspects, including mm/memory-failure.c.

memory_failure() not only contains a folio_wait_writeback() but also a folio_lock(), so twice the fun :)

As long as it's run from a workqueue it shouldn't affect the rest of the system, right? The wq thread will consume a nontrivial amount of resources, I suppose, so it would be better to implement those waits asynchronously.
