Subject: [PATCH v1] mm, hwpoison: remove obsolete comment
Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2022 11:56:01 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220125025601.3054511-1-naoya.horiguchi@linux.dev> (raw)

From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@nec.com>

With the introduction of mf_mutex, most of memory error handling
process is mutually exclusive, so the in-line comment about
subtlety about double-checking PageHWPoison is no more correct.
So remove it.
