mm/hwpoison: disable pcp for page_handle_poison()
Recent changes by patch "mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists" makes kernels determine whether to use pcp by pcp_allowed_order(), which breaks soft-offline for hugetlb pages. Soft-offline dissolves a migration source page, then removes it from buddy free list, so it's assumed that any subpage of the soft-offlined hugepage are recognized as a buddy page just after returning from dissolve_free_huge_page(). pcp_allowed_order() returns true for hugetlb, so this assumption is no longer true. So disable pcp during dissolve_free_huge_page() and take_page_off_buddy() to prevent soft-offlined hugepages from linking to pcp lists. Soft-offline should not be common events so the impact on performance should be minimal. And I think that the optimization of Mel's patch could benefit to hugetlb so zone_pcp_disable() is called only in hwpoison context.
