In v4.7 commit
c570032a6734 ("mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force
vmstat update") introduced vmstat_refresh(), with its vmstat underflow
checking; then in v4.8 commit
9056fc438498 ("mm, vmstat: add
infrastructure for per-node vmstats") split NR_VM_NODE_STAT_ITEMS out of
NR_VM_ZONE_STAT_ITEMS without updating vmstat_refresh(): so it has been
missing out much of the vmstat underflow checking ever since.
Reinstate it.
Thanks to Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> for tangentially pointing this out.
