When we want to grab a refcount via get_any_page, we call
__get_any_page that calls get_hwpoison_page to get the
actual refcount.
get_any_page is only there because we have a sort of retry
mechanism in case the page we met is unknown to us or
if we raced with an allocation.

Also __get_any_page prints some messages about the page type
in case the page was a free page or the page type was unknown,
but if anything, we only need to print a message in case the
pagetype was unknown, as that is reporting an error down the chain.

Let us merge get_any_page and __get_any_page, and let the message
be printed in soft_offline_page.
