At least I think this is an issue.

Would it help if dissolve_free_huge_page doesn't unlock hugetlb_lock
until update_and_free_hugetlb_folio is done, or basically until
dissolve_free_huge_page is done?

TestSetPageHWPoison in memory_failure is called after
try_memory_failure_hugetlb, and folio_test_hugetlb is tested within
__get_huge_page_for_hwpoison, which is wrapped by the hugetlb_lock. So
by the time dissolve_free_huge_page returns, subpages already go
through hugetlb_vmemmap_restore and __destroy_compound_gigantic_folio
and become non-compound raw pages (folios). Now
folio_test_hugetlb(p)=false will be correct for memory_failure, and it
can recover p as a dissolved non-hugetlb page.
