Patch series "mm/hwpoison: fix unpoison_memory()", v4. The main purpose of this series is to sync unpoison code to recent changes around how hwpoison code takes page refcount. Unpoison should work or simply fail (without crash) if impossible. The recent works of keeping hwpoison pages in shmem pagecache introduce a new state of hwpoisoned pages, but unpoison for such pages is not supported yet with this series. It seems that soft-offline and unpoison can be used as general purpose page offline/online mechanism (not in the context of memory error). I think that we need some additional works to realize it because currently soft-offline and unpoison are assumed not to happen so frequently (print out too many messages for aggressive usecases). But anyway this could be another interesting next topic. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210614021212.223326-1-nao.horiguchi@gmail.com/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20211025230503.2650970-1-naoya.horiguchi@linux.dev/ v3: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20211105055058.3152564-1-naoya.horiguchi@linux.dev/ This patch (of 3): Originally mf_mutex is introduced to serialize multiple MCE events, but it is not that useful to allow unpoison to run in parallel with memory_failure() and soft offline. So apply mf_mutex to soft offline and unpoison. The memory failure handler and soft offline handler get simpler with this.

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 Restructured Text 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.
