Subject: [PATCH v3 4/5] mm,hwpoison: drop unneeded pcplist draining
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2020 12:15:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200914101559.17103-5-osalvador@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200914101559.17103-1-osalvador@suse.de>

memory_failure and soft_offline_path paths now drain pcplists by calling
get_hwpoison_page.

memory_failure flags the page as HWPoison before, so that page cannot
longer go into a pcplist, and soft_offline_page only flags a page as
HWPoison if 1) we took the page off a buddy freelist 2) the page was
in-use and we migrated it 3) was a clean pagecache.

Because of that, a page cannot longer be poisoned and be in a pcplist.
