which are not triggered by the memory hotplug but rather CMA allocator.
The original idea behind dumping the page state for all call paths was
that these messages will be helpful debugging failures. From the above
it seems that this is not the case for the CMA path because we are
lacking much more context. E.g the second reported page might be a CMA
allocated page. It is still interesting to see a slab page in the CMA
area but it is hard to tell whether this is bug from the above output
alone.
Address this issue by dumping the page state only on request. Both
start_isolate_page_range and has_unmovable_pages already have an
argument to ignore hwpoison pages so make this argument more generic and
turn it into flags and allow callers to combine non-default modes into a
mask. While we are at it, has_unmovable_pages call from is_pageblock_removable_nolock
(sysfs removable file) is questionable to report the failure so drop it
from there as well.

Hi,
this is triggered by [1]. I think it should go as a separate patch
rathen than folded in to [2] because it gives a more context for future
reference but I will not insist of course.
Implementation wise I went with the simplest patch but if there is a
strong feeling that we need a dedicated enum then I will do that. The
API is quite low level so I didn't feel an urge to do that myself.
