I'm still not sure why the test succeeded by reverting these because
current mainline kernel provides similar mechanism to prevent reuse of
soft offlined page. So this success seems to me something suspicious.

Even if we call munmap() on the range, it still can’t be be reused? If so, how to recover those memory then?

To investigate more, I want to have additional info about the page states
of the relevant pages after soft offlining.  Could you collect it by the
following steps?

Do you want to collect those from the failed or succeed kernel?
