If it is caused by one line of padding, and you read with N lines of text per page and have orphans:1;widows:1, then I think on average it should happen once every N chapters. If you have orphans/widows set higher than 1 then it might happen more often.
Edit: Another factor that could affect it is font-size rescaling that can happen when a book is converted with Calibre. The added line of padding is based on the body font size, but font-size rescaling can increase the body font size and reduce the paragraph font size, so that one line of body padding is larger than one line of text. That would make it happen more often and could also cause more than one line of text to be pushed to the next page.
