Subject: [PATCH v13 120/137] mm/filemap: Remove PageHWPoison check from next_uptodate_page()

Pages are individually marked as suffering from hardware poisoning.
Checking that the head page is not hardware poisoned doesn't make
sense; we might be after a subpage.  We check each page individually
before we use it, so this was an optimisation gone wrong.
