mm/memory-failure.c: use compound_head() flags for huge pages
commit 7258ae5c5a2ce2f5969e8b18b881be40ab55433d upstream. memory_failure() chooses a recovery action function based on the page flags. For huge pages it uses the tail page flags which don't have anything interesting set, resulting in: > Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: Unknown page state > Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: recovery action for unknown page: Failed Instead, save a copy of the head page's flags if this is a huge page, this means if there are no relevant flags for this tail page, we use the head pages flags instead. This results in the me_huge_page() recovery action being called: > Memory failure: 0x9b7969: recovery action for huge page: Delayed For hugepages that have not yet been allocated, this allows the hugepage to be dequeued. Fixes: 524fca1e7356 ("HWPOISON: fix misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170524130204.21845-1-james.morse@arm.com Signed-off-by: James Morse <james.morse@arm.com> Tested-by: Punit Agrawal <punit.agrawal@arm.com> Acked-by: Punit Agrawal <punit.agrawal@arm.com> Acked-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
