HWPOISON, hugetlb: isolate corrupted hugepage

If error hugepage is not in-use, we can fully recovery from error
by dequeuing it from freelist, so return RECOVERY.
Otherwise whether or not we can recovery depends on user processes,
so return DELAYED.

  * Huge pages. Needs work.
  * Issues:
- * No rmap support so we cannot find the original mapper. In theory could walk
- * all MMs and look for the mappings, but that would be non atomic and racy.
- * Need rmap for hugepages for this. Alternatively we could employ a heuristic,
- * like just walking the current process and hoping it has it mapped (that
- * should be usually true for the common "shared database cache" case)
- * Should handle free huge pages and dequeue them too, but this needs to
- * handle huge page accounting correctly.
+ * - Error on hugepage is contained in hugepage unit (not in raw page unit.)
+ *   To narrow down kill region to one page, we need to break up pmd.
+ * - To support soft-offlining for hugepage, we need to support hugepage
+ *   migration.
