Basing on what I see in dmesg, it is highly likely to get fixed by
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/5/726. Could you please apply/retest?

Any update on this and does anyone know if this is a regression?

This seems related from Chrome OS:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=822360

I'm afraid that I don't currently have the resources to test the patches (that haven't been committed upstream) at the moment, although I may need to in the end as one of my servers is crashing every day.

Wait a second, you are sitting on a discontinued kernel. The fix has gone in back in December. Upgrade to longterm series, it's there since 4.19.6, and retest. Otherwise I do suggest that we close this issue.

I am going to enable zswap and z3fold to confirm the fix. Sorry, I didn't follow through after it was merged.

I'm installing it too. I didn't know there was a fix in-place anywhere so this is good news! It'll take me a few days of testing to get a result.

I can confirm there have been no crashes since I switched, so closing. Thanks for the help and fix :)
