Subject: [PATCH v2 00/02] fix return value issue of soft offlining hugepages

Hi everyone,

This is an update of the fix of return value issue of hugepage soft-offlining
(v1: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10962135/).

The code itself has no change since v1 but I updated the description.
Jerry helped testing and finally confirmed that the patch is OK.

In previous discussion, it's pointed out by Mike that this problem contained
two separate issues (a problem of dissolve_free_huge_page() and a problem of
soft_offline_huge_page() itself) and I agree with it (althouth I stated
differently at v1). So I separated the patch.

Hopefully this will help finishing the issue.

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi
