I feel that 4 callers of get_hwpoison_page() are in the different context,
so it might be better to consider them separately to add dump_page() or not.
soft_offline_page() still prints out "%s: %#lx: unknown page type: %lx (%pGp)"
message, which might be duplicate so this printk() may be dropped.
In memory_failure_hugetlb() and memory_failure(), we can call dump_page() after
action_result().  unpoison_memory() doesn't need dump_page() at all because
it's related to already hwpoisoned page.

Thanks,
