The folio migration is widely used in kernel, memory compaction, memory

but once access a poisoned source folio when migrating, the kernel will

Is there some simple fixup which we can prepare for -stable kernels
which will avoid this panic?

No simple fixup, and also I don't think this is suitable for the
-stable, it should be an enhancement about MC safe copy and as a new
feature, not a bugfix. See other poison recovery(CoW on normal/hugetlb
page, khugepaged/ksm copy), we don't backport them too.
