Subject: [PATCH 4.17 03/56] mm: teach dump_page() to correctly output poisoned struct pages

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@...cle.com>

commit fc36def997cfd6cbff3eda4f82853a5c311c5466 upstream.

If struct page is poisoned, and uninitialized access is detected via
PF_POISONED_CHECK(page) dump_page() is called to output the page.  But,
the dump_page() itself accesses struct page to determine how to print
it, and therefore gets into a recursive loop.

For example:

  dump_page()
   __dump_page()
    PageSlab(page)
     PF_POISONED_CHECK(page)
      VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PagePoisoned(page), page)
       dump_page() recursion loop.
