Like commit a873dfe1032a ("mm, hwpoison: try to recover from copy-on
write faults"), there is another path which could crash because it does
not have recovery code where poison is consumed by the kernel in
do_cow_fault(), a crash calltrace shown below on old kernel, but it
could be happened in the lastest mainline code,

   CPU: 7 PID: 3248 Comm: mpi Kdump: loaded Tainted: G           OE     5.10.0 #1
   pc : copy_page+0xc/0xbc
   lr : copy_user_highpage+0x50/0x9c
   Call trace:
     copy_page+0xc/0xbc
     do_cow_fault+0x118/0x2bc
     do_fault+0x40/0x1a4

     do_page_fault+0x184/0x454
     do_translation_fault+0xac/0xd4
     do_mem_abort+0x44/0xbc

Fix it by using copy_mc_user_highpage() to handle this case and return
VM_FAULT_HWPOISON for cow fault.

Thanks for catching it!
