If we offline the same page, the value of mce_bad_pages will be added *again*, this means the value is incorrect now. Assume the page is still free during this short time. soft_offline_page() get_any_page() "else if (is_free_buddy_page(p))" branch return 0 "goto done"; "atomic_long_add(1, &mce_bad_pages);" This patch: Move poisoned page check at the beginning of the function in order to fix the error.
