mm/hwpoison: fix race between soft_offline_page and unpoison_memory
Wanpeng Li reported a race between soft_offline_page() and unpoison_memory(), which causes the following kernel panic: BUG: Bad page state in process bash pfn:97000 page:ffffea00025c0000 count:0 mapcount:1 mapping: (null) index:0x7f4fdbe00 flags: 0x1fffff80080048(uptodate|active|swapbacked) page dumped because: PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE flag(s) set bad because of flags: flags: 0x40(active) Modules linked in: snd_hda_codec_hdmi i915 rpcsec_gss_krb5 nfsv4 dns_resolver bnep rfcomm nfsd bluetooth auth_rpcgss nfs_acl nfs rfkill lockd grace sunrpc i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_hda_codec_generic drm snd_hda_intel fscache snd_hda_codec x86_pkg_temp_thermal coretemp kvm_intel snd_hda_core snd_hwdep kvm snd_pcm snd_seq_dummy snd_seq_oss crct10dif_pclmul snd_seq_midi crc32_pclmul snd_seq_midi_event ghash_clmulni_intel snd_rawmidi aesni_intel lrw gf128mul snd_seq glue_helper ablk_helper snd_seq_device cryptd fuse snd_timer dcdbas serio_raw mei_me parport_pc snd mei ppdev i2c_core video lp soundcore parport lpc_ich shpchp mfd_core ext4 mbcache jbd2 sd_mod e1000e ahci ptp libahci crc32c_intel libata pps_core CPU: 3 PID: 2211 Comm: bash Not tainted 4.2.0-rc5-mm1+ #45 Hardware name: Dell Inc.

Anyway, the page refcount and mapcount will still mess if the page is mapped by multiple users. This race was introduced by commit 4491f71260 ("mm/memory-failure: set PageHWPoison before migrate_pages()"), which focuses on preventing the reuse of successfully migrated page. Before this commit we prevent the reuse by changing the migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE during soft offlining, which has the following problems, so simply reverting the commit is not a best option: 1) it doesn't eliminate the reuse completely, because set_migratetype_isolate() can fail to set MIGRATE_ISOLATE to the target page if the pageblock of the page contains one or more unmovable pages (i.e. has_unmovable_pages() returns true). 2) the original code changes migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE forcibly, and sets it to MIGRATE_MOVABLE forcibly after soft offline, regardless of the original migratetype state, which could impact other subsystems like memory hotplug or compaction. This patch moves PageSetHWPoison just after put_page() in unmap_and_move(), which closes up the reported race window and minimizes another race window b/w SetPageHWPoison and reallocation (which causes the reuse of soft-offlined page.) The latter race window still exists but it's acceptable, because it's rare and effectively the same as ordinary "containment failure" case even if it happens, so keep the window open is acceptable.
