I found that action_result(MF_MSG_UNKNOWN) in try_memory_failure_hugetlb()
does not follow the rule, so that could break the counter.
I don't think this is the issue in your patch, so I'm fine with this patch.

I'll submit a fix later for this, which will add hugetlb_set_page_hwpoison()
in the path.  That will have a bit non-trivial change because we need do
this in hugeltb_lock.

Anyway, thank you for this work.
