[PATCH 3.14 09/51] mm: soft-offline: fix num_poisoned_pages counting on concurrent events

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri May 15 2015 - 19:36:41 EST


3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 602498f9aa43d4951eece3fd6ad95a6d0a78d537 upstream.

If multiple soft offline events hit one free page/hugepage concurrently,
soft_offline_page() can handle the free page/hugepage multiple times,
which makes num_poisoned_pages counter increased more than once. This
patch fixes this wrong counting by checking TestSetPageHWPoison for normal
papes and by checking the return value of dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page()
for hugepages.
