Hi Matthew, dump_page_owenr() should be called when !PagePoisoned, right?


+	if (reason)
+		pr_warn("page dumped because: %s\n", reason);
   	dump_page_owner(page);
   }
   EXPORT_SYMBOL(dump_page);

dump_page_owner() is called whether the page is Poisoned or not ...
both before and after this patch.  Is there a problem with that?

struct page_ext *page_ext = lookup_page_ext(page);

  unsigned long pfn = page_to_pfn(page);
  struct mem_section *section = __pfn_to_section(pfn);
  if (!section->page_ext)

If page is Poisoned, I guess the section maybe NULL,
so section->page_ext may meet NULL pointer dereference,
is it possible?
