mm,hwpoison: Try to narrow window race for free pages
mainline inclusion from linux-v5.10-rc1 commit b94e0282 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4LE22 CVE: NA -------------------------------- Aristeu Rozanski reported that a customer test case started to report -EBUSY after the hwpoison rework patchset. There is a race window between spotting a free page and taking it off its buddy freelist, so it might be that by the time we try to take it off, the page has been already allocated. This patch tries to handle such race window by trying to handle the new type of page again if the page was allocated under us. Signed-off-by:Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Reported-by:
