Newer kernels have changes which check refaults on anonymous memory as well so this has likely changed the balance. These would be out of scope for 15.2 unfortunately. Vlastimil, I remember we have discussed this problem in upstream some time ago. You've had a patch which has disabled the heuristic (2c012a4ad1a2). Testing with that reverted would sound like a good next step.
