Subject: [RFC][PATCH v1 10/11] mm: clear PageHWPoison in memory hotremove
Date: Fri,  9 Nov 2018 15:47:14 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1541746035-13408-11-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1541746035-13408-1-git-send-email-n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com>

One hopeful usecase of memory hotplug is to replace half-broken DIMMs
with new ones, so it makes sense to clear hwpoison info at the time of
memory hotremove.

I hope that this patch covers the topic discussed in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/17/1228
