Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] mm: soft-offline: fix race against page allocation

I've updated the patchset based on feedbacks:

- updated comments (from Andrew),
- moved calling set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() from mm/migrate.c to mm/memory-failure.c,
  which is necessary to check the return code of set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page(),
- lkp bot reported a build error when only 1/2 is applied.

  set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() is defined in 2/2, so we can't use it
  in 1/2. Simply doing s/set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page/!TestSetPageHWPoison/
  will fix this.
