mm,hwpoison: refactor get_any_page
[ Upstream commit 8295d535e2aa198bdf65a4045d622df38955ffe2 ]
Patch series "HWPoison: Refactor get page interface", v2.
This patch (of 3):
When we want to grab a refcount via get_any_page, we call __get_any_page
that calls get_hwpoison_page to get the actual refcount.
get_any_page() is only there because we have a sort of retry mechanism in
case the page we met is unknown to us or if we raced with an allocation.
Also __get_any_page() prints some messages about the page type in case the
page was a free page or the page type was unknown, but if anything, we
only need to print a message in case the pagetype was unknown, as that is
reporting an error down the chain.
Let us merge get_any_page() and __get_any_page(), and let the message be
printed in soft_offline_page. While we are it, we can also remove the
'pfn' parameter as it is no longer used.
