An interesting issue cropped with making the pagetables be allocated and freed concurrently (i.e. removing their grandeous struct_mutex guard) was that we would overflow the page stash. This happens when we have multiple allocators grabbing WC pages such that we fill the vm's local page stash and then when we free another page, the page stash is already full and we overflow. The fix is quite simple: to check for a full page stash before adding another. This results in us keeping a vm local page stash around for much longer, which is both a blessing and a curse.
