Subject: mm/hwpoison: fix memory failure still holding reference count after unpoisoning empty zero page

madvise hwpoison inject will poison the read-only empty zero page if there
is no write access before poison.  Empty zero page reference count will be
increased for hwpoison, subsequent poison zero page will return directly
since page has already been set PG_hwpoison, however, page reference count
is still increased by get_user_pages_fast.  The unpoison process will
unpoison the empty zero page and decrease the reference count successfully
for the fist time, however, subsequent unpoison empty zero page will
return directly since page has already been unpoisoned and without
decrease the page reference count of empty zero page.

This patch fixes it by decreasing page reference count for empty zero page
which has already been unpoisoned and page count > 1.

Testcase:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <errno.h>

#define PAGES_TO_TEST 3
#define PAGE_SIZE	4096

int main(void)
{
	char *mem;
	int i;

	mem = mmap(NULL, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE,
			PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);

	if (madvise(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE, MADV_HWPOISON) == -1)
		return -1;

	munmap(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE);

	return 0;
}

Add printk to dump page reference count:
