The folio migration is widely used in kernel, memory compaction, memory hotplug, soft offline page, numa balance, memory demote/promotion, etc, but once access a poisoned source folio when migrating, the kerenl will panic. There is a mechanism in the kernel to recover from uncorrectable memory errors, ARCH_HAS_COPY_MC(Machine Check Safe Memory Copy), which is already used in NVDIMM or core-mm paths(eg, CoW, khugepaged, coredump, ksm copy), see copy_mc_to_{user,kernel}, copy_mc_{user_}highpage callers. This series of patches provide the recovery mechanism from folio copy for the widely used folio migration. Please note, because folio migration is no guarantee of success, so we could chose to make folio migration tolerant of memory failures, adding folio_mc_copy() which is a #MC versions of folio_copy(), once accessing a poisoned source folio, we could return error and make the folio migration fail, and this could avoid the similar panic shown below.
