The problem statement makes sense to me but I am not sure about the
details if we run into the "PageHWPoison" path with a huge page. I have
the gut feeling that we have to do more for huge pages in the
PageHWPoison() path, because we might be dealing with a free huge page
after unmap succeeds. I might be wrong.
