Well, after further examination and manipulations, I determined that
both the paging oops and the report of BUG page_alloc.c that I was
getting are eliminated after moving my swap partition off of the
raid0+lvm volume that it was on and onto a separate disk.

Still a bug, but a fairly obscure one. It's obviously not necessary for
performance reasons since the kernel stripes swaps itself, but it
certainly caused me a lot of headache until I figured out what was going on.
