Subject: mm, hwpoison: do not lock page again when me_huge_page() successfully recovers
Currently me_huge_page() temporary unlocks page to perform some actions
then locks it again later. My testcase (which calls hard-offline on
some tail page in a hugetlb, then accesses the address of the hugetlb
range) showed that page allocation code detects this page lock on buddy
page and printed out "BUG: Bad page state" message.
check_new_page_bad() does not consider a page with __PG_HWPOISON as bad
page, so this flag works as kind of filter, but this filtering doesn't
work in this case because the "bad page" is not the actual hwpoisoned
page.
This patch suggests to drop the 2nd page lock to fix the issue.
