mm/hwpoison: fix unpoison_memory()
After recent soft-offline rework, error pages can be taken off from
buddy allocator, but the existing unpoison_memory() does not properly
undo the operation. Moreover, due to the recent change on
__get_hwpoison_page(), get_page_unless_zero() is hardly called for
hwpoisoned pages. So __get_hwpoison_page() highly likely returns -EBUSY
(meaning to fail to grab page refcount) and unpoison just clears
PG_hwpoison without releasing a refcount. That does not lead to a
critical issue like kernel panic, but unpoisoned pages never get back to
buddy (leaked permanently), which is not good.
To (partially) fix this, we need to identify "taken off" pages from
other types of hwpoisoned pages. We can't use refcount or page flags
for this purpose, so a pseudo flag is defined by hacking ->private
field. Someone might think that put_page() is enough to cancel
taken-off pages, but the normal free path contains some operations not
suitable for the current purpose, and can fire VM_BUG_ON().
Note that unpoison_memory() is now supposed to be cancel hwpoison events
injected only by madvise() or
/sys/devices/system/memory/{hard,soft}_offline_page, not by MCE
injection, so please don't try to use unpoison when testing with MCE
injection.
