Do you mean TTU_SYNC? It seems it's not set.
There might be a race will hit the proposed pr_warn_ratelimit():
/* Assume folio is isolated for reclaim, so memory_failure failed to handle it at first time. Then it's put back to LRU. */
do_migrate_range
folio_test_hwpoison
folio_mapped
<folio is isolated for reclaim again.>
unmap_poisoned_folio
<folio is put buck.>
pr_warn_ratelimit(folio_mapped)
But I might be miss something. And even this race is possible, it should be really hard to hit.
Thanks.
