page_folio() is fetched before calling get_hwpoison_hugetlb_folio()
without hugetlb_lock being held.  So hugetlb page could be demoted before
get_hwpoison_hugetlb_folio() holding hugetlb_lock but after page_folio()
is fetched.  So get_hwpoison_hugetlb_folio() will hold unexpected extra
refcnt of hugetlb folio while leaving demoted page un-refcnted.
