Thank you for the report, Wanpeng.

I think that unpoison is used only in testing so this race never affects
our end-users/customers, so going back to this migratetype change stuff
looks unworthy to me.

If I read correctly, the old migratetype approach has a few problems:
  1) it doesn't fix the problem completely, because
     set_migratetype_isolate() can fail to set MIGRATE_ISOLATE to the
     target page if the pageblock of the page contains one or more
     unmovable pages (i.e. has_unmovable_pages() returns true).
  2) the original code changes migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE forcibly,
     and sets it to MIGRATE_MOVABLE forcibly after soft offline, regardless
     of the original migratetype state, which could impact other subsystems
     like memory hotplug or compaction.

So in my opinion, the best option is to fix this within unpoison code,
but it might be hard because we don't know whether the target page is
under migration. The second option is to add a race check in the if (reason
== MR_MEMORY_FAILURE) branch in unmap_and_move(), although this looks ad-hoc
and need testing. The third option is to leave it with some "FIXME" comment.
