Subject: [PATCH v1 4/4] mm/memory-failure: check __PG_HWPOISON separately
from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_*
The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef80 ("mm: soft-offline: don't
free target page in successful page migration") was not closed completely,
because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also for hard-offline.
Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into buddy pool, and then an
uncorrected memory error hits the page just after entering __free_one_page(),
then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page->flags & PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered,
despite the fact that it's not necessary because the data on the affected
page is not consumed.
To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at
allocation/free time. I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON flags is
defined to prevent the page from being reused and setting it outside the
page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.)
And the patch reverts most of the changes from commit add05cecef80 about
the new refcounting rule of soft-offlined pages, which is no longer necessary.
