There is a potential race between __update_and_free_hugetlb_folio() and
try_memory_failure_hugetlb():
CPU1 CPU2
__update_and_free_hugetlb_folio try_memory_failure_hugetlb
folio_test_hugetlb
-- It's still hugetlb folio.
folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison
spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
__get_huge_page_for_hwpoison
folio_set_hugetlb_hwpoison
spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
__folio_clear_hugetlb(folio);
-- Hugetlb flag is cleared but too late.
spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
When the above race occurs, raw error page info will be leaked. Even
worse, raw error pages won't have hwpoisoned flag set and hit
pcplists/buddy. Fix this issue by deferring
folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison() until __folio_clear_hugetlb() is done. So
all raw error pages will have hwpoisoned flag set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
