The previous patch teaches get_any_page() to return -ENOTRECOVERABLE
for stable unhandlable kernel pages (PG_reserved, slab, page tables,
large-kmalloc).  memory_failure() still folds every negative return
into MF_MSG_GET_HWPOISON, so callers that want to react to the
unrecoverable cases (a panic option, smarter logging) cannot tell
them apart from transient page-allocator races.

Turn the post-call branch into a switch over the get_hwpoison_page()
return code: map -ENOTRECOVERABLE to MF_MSG_KERNEL and any other
negative return to MF_MSG_GET_HWPOISON.  case 0 keeps the existing
free-buddy / kernel-high-order handling and case 1 falls through to
the rest of memory_failure() unchanged.

The MF_MSG_KERNEL label and tracepoint string are kept as
"reserved kernel page" to avoid breaking userspace tools that match
on those literals; the enum value still adequately tags the failure
even though it now also covers slab, page tables and large-kmalloc
pages.
