Thank you for the patch.  I have a question.
If you disables CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE, mm/memory-failure.c should
not be compiled, so I wonder why you saw the compile error.
Could you share your .config file?

Acutally I saw the similar report a few days ago
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220923095013.1151252-1-michael@walle.cc/
, where the build error happened in aarch64,  so I likely missed some arch
dependency.  I responded to the report by updating the patch by applying
"#if defined(CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE) && defined(CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG)"
to the definition of memblk_nr_poison_{inc,sub}.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220923141204.GA1484969@ik1-406-35019.vs.sakura.ne.jp/

I did not confirm that this fix is really right, because I can't reproduced
the build error in my environment.  So could you check that v5 patch fixes
the build error you're seeing?  (The current version in mm-unstable is v4,
so that should be replaced with v5.)

Thanks,
