But it's not "is poison".  it's "contains poison".  So how about
folio_contains_hwpoison() as a name?

But what do you really want to know here?  In the Glorious Future,
individual pages get their memdesc pointer set to be a hwpoison
pointer.  Are we going to need to retain a bit in every memdesc to
say whether one of the pages in the memdesc has been poisoned?

Or can we get away with just testing individual pages as we look at
them?
