Thanks for ccing Oscar, Andrew.
After getting this patch into our internal production environment, I
recently found a regression bug introduced by my commit a0157a2c735b
("mm/khugepaged: recover from poisoned file-backed memory").
Given it is only in mm-unstable, I wonder should I put out a v7 with
the fix, or should I make it a new and separate commit?
Sorry for the bug.
