[PATCH v1 2/4] mm/memory-failure: fix race in counting num_poisoned_pages

From: Naoya Horiguchi <hidden>
Date: 2015-07-16 01:43:11
Also in: lkml

When memory_failure() is called on a page which are just freed after page
migration from soft offlining, the counter num_poisoned_pages is raised twice.
So let's fix it with using TestSetPageHWPoison.
