Hi,

Thanks for confirming.

Understood. As I don't see other suitable place to put ENUM value, how about changing like below?
Or, do you prefer adding another ENUM type instead of this?

```
static void update_per_node_mf_stats(unsigned long pfn,
-                                    enum mf_result result)
+                                    enum mf_result result, bool is_soft_offline)
 {
        int nid = MAX_NUMNODES;
        struct memory_failure_stats *mf_stats = NULL;
@@ -1299,6 +1299,12 @@ static void update_per_node_mf_stats(unsigned long pfn,
        }

        mf_stats = &NODE_DATA(nid)->mf_stats;
+       if (is_soft_offline) {
+               ++mf->stats->soft_offlined;
+               ++mf_stats->total;
+               return;
+       }
+
        switch (result) {
        case MF_IGNORED:
                ++mf_stats->ignored;
```
