The page refcount could stop collapsing hwpoison page. One could argue
khugepaged could bail out earlier by checking hwpoison flag, but it is
definitely not a must do. So it relies on refcount now.

Thanks for catching this. Yeah, it seems this one is overlooked. I
didn't know that reading symlink needed to copy the first page. Will
fix it in the next version.
