[PATCH 4.14 098/119] drivers/base/memory.c: dont access uninitialized memmaps in soft_offline_page_store()

commit 641fe2e9387a36f9ee01d7c69382d1fe147a5e98 upstream.

Uninitialized memmaps contain garbage and in the worst case trigger kernel
BUGs, especially with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING. They should not get touched.

Right now, when trying to soft-offline a PFN that resides on a memory
block that was never onlined, one gets a misleading error with
CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING:

:/# echo 5637144576 > /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
[ 23.097167] soft offline: 0x150000 page already poisoned

But the actual result depends on the garbage in the memmap.

soft_offline_page() can only work with online pages, it returns -EIO in
case of ZONE_DEVICE. Make sure to only forward pages that are online
(iow, managed by the buddy) and, therefore, have an initialized memmap.

Add a check against pfn_to_online_page() and similarly return -EIO.
