Subject: [PATCH 0/7] HWPOISON for hugepage backed KVM guest

Hi,

I wrote "HWPOISON for hugepage" patchset last year, but it didn't
cover the hugepages used by KVM guest because follow_hugetlb_pages()
called in a guest page fault code path didn't know about swap entry
formatted pmd entry.
This patchset fixes it and makes both soft and hard offline available
on hugepage backed KVM guest.

I appreciate all of your comments and reviews.

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi

  [PATCH 1/7] hugetlb: check swap entry in follow_hugetlb_page()
