Hi Naoya,
very sorry to disturb you, I want to consult you about the handing to error page type in memory_failure().
If the error page is the current task's page table, will the memory_failure not handling that?
>From my test, I found the memory_failure() consider the error page table physical address as unknown page.
why it does not handling the page table page error? Thanks a lot.

mm/memory-failure.c: define page types for action_result() in one place
This cleanup patch moves all strings passed to action_result() into a
singl= e array action_page_type so that a reader can easily find which
kind of actio= n results are possible. And this patch also fixes the
odd lines to be printed out, like "unknown page state page" or "free
buddy, 2nd try page".
