[PATCH 10/22] HWPOISON: check and isolate corrupted free pages v2

From: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

If memory corruption hits the free buddy pages, we can safely ignore them.
No one will access them until page allocation time, then prep_new_page()
will automatically check and isolate PG_hwpoison page for us (for 0-order
allocation).

This patch expands prep_new_page() to check every component page in a high
order page allocation, in order to completely stop PG_hwpoison pages from
being recirculated.

Note that the common case -- only allocating a single page, doesn't
do any more work than before. Allocating > order 0 does a bit more work,
but that's relatively uncommon.

This simple implementation may drop some innocent neighbor pages, hopefully
it is not a big problem because the event should be rare enough.

This patch adds some runtime costs to high order page users.

[AK: Improved description]

v2: Andi Kleen:
Port to -mm code
Move check into separate function.
Don't dump stack in bad_pages for hwpoisoned pages.
