Subject: [PATCH v1 0/6] mm/hwpoison: fix unpoison_memory()

Hi,

This patchset is suggesting to adjust unpoison_memory() to the new way of
isolation and refcounting of hwpoisoned pages.

As mentioned in [1], NR_FREE_PAGES is incremented via newly added function
undoing take_page_off_buddy(), so the counter is consistent with this series.

It depends on some other hwpoison-related patches (not mainlined but in linux-mm),
so I listed the dependencies here:

  - mm/hwpoison: do not lock page again when me_huge_page() successfully recovers
  - mm/memory-failure: make sure wait for page writeback in memory_failure
  - mm,hwpoison: make get_hwpoison_page() call get_any_page()
  - mm,hwpoison: fix race with hugetlb page allocation
  - mm,hwpoison: Send SIGBUS with error virutal address
  - mm,hwpoison: Return -EHWPOISON to denote that the page has already been poisoned
  - mm/memory-failure: Use a mutex to avoid memory_failure() races

Or GitHub branch I pushed for easy patch access might be helpful for reviewers.
