From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@xxxxxxx> In already hwpoisoned case, memory_failure() is supposed to return with releasing the page refcount taken for error handling. But currently the refcount is not released when called with MF_COUNT_INCREASED, which makes page refcount inconsistent. This should be rare and non-critical, but it might be inconvenient in testing (unpoison doesn't work).
