mm: teach dump_page() to correctly output poisoned struct pages
If struct page is poisoned, and uninitialized access is detected via PF_POISONED_CHECK(page) dump_page() is called to output the page. But, the dump_page() itself accesses struct page to determine how to print it, and therefore gets into a recursive loop. For example: dump_page() __dump_page() PageSlab(page) PF_POISONED_CHECK(page) VM_BUG_ON_PGFLAGS(PagePoisoned(page), page) dump_page() recursion loop.
