mm/memory-failure.c: recheck PageHuge() after hugetlb page migrate successfully
commit a49ecbcd7b0d5a1cda7d60e03df402dd0ef76ac8 upstream. After a successful hugetlb page migration by soft offline, the source page will either be freed into hugepage_freelists or buddy(over-commit page). If page is in buddy, page_hstate(page) will be NULL. It will hit a NULL pointer dereference in dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page(). BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000058 IP: [<ffffffff81163761>] dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page+0x131/0x1d0 PGD c23762067 PUD c24be2067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP So check PageHuge(page) after call migrate_pages() successfully.
