From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm,hwpoison: make get_hwpoison_page() call get_any_page()
__get_hwpoison_page() could fail to grab refcount by some race condition,
so it's helpful if we can handle it by retrying. We already have retry
logic, so make get_hwpoison_page() call get_any_page() when called from
memory_failure().
As a result, get_hwpoison_page() can return negative values (i.e. error
code), so some callers are also changed to handle error cases.
soft_offline_page() does nothing for -EBUSY because that's enough and
users in userspace can easily handle it. unpoison_memory() is also
unchanged because it's broken and need thorough fixes (will be done
later).
