Subject: [RFC v2] HWPOISON: soft offlining for non-lru movable page

From: Yisheng Xie <xieyisheng1@...wei.com>

This patch is to extends soft offlining framework to support
non-lru page, which already support migration after
commit bda807d44454 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page
migration")

When memory corrected errors occur on a non-lru movable page,
we can choose to stop using it by migrating data onto another
page and disable the original (maybe half-broken) one.

Signed-off-by: Yisheng Xie <xieyisheng1@...wei.com>
Suggested-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@...nel.org>
---
v2:
 delete function soft_offline_movable_page() and hanle non-lru movable
 page in __soft_offline_page() as Michal Hocko suggested.

Any comment is more than welcome.
