Thanks for your work, Naoya. Maybe something to improve below.

Is unpoison_memory() expected to restore the HPageMigratable flag as well ?

I believe this can prevent hwpoisoned hugepages from being migrated though there still be some windows.

Would we set HPageMigratable flag for free hugetlb pages here? IIUC, they're not expected to have this flag set.
