commit 397f6d14f9c370e4910e6885294c340f39dedbf5 upstream.
In do_migrate_range(), the hwpoisoned folio may be large folio, which
can't be handled by unmap_poisoned_folio().
I can reproduce this issue in qemu after adding delay in memory_failure()

Besides, do_migrate_range() may be called between memory_failure set
hwpoison flag and isolate the folio from lru, so remove WARN_ON(). In other
places, unmap_poisoned_folio() is called when the folio is isolated, obey
it in do_migrate_range() too.

2.30.2
The original patch uses put_folio, because folio_try_get() is called
before this if block. But for 6.1, get_page_unless_zero() is called
after this if block, so the page in this if block has no elevated
refcount compared to the original patch context. You might want to
replace “goto put_folio” with “continue” in the original patch instead.
Best Regards,
Yan, Zi
I'll send the second version of the patch
