Subject: [PATCH v2] mm: Fix __dump_page() for poisoned pages

Evaluating page_mapping() on a poisoned page ends up dereferencing junk
and making PF_POISONED_CHECK() considerably crashier than intended:

Fix that by not inspecting the mapping until we've determined that it's
likely to be valid. Now the above condition still ends up stopping the
kernel, but in the correct manner:
