[PATCH v4 1/4] mm/hwpoison: delete all entries before traversal in __folio_free_raw_hwp

[Jiaqi Yan <jiaqiyan@google.com>]

Traversal on llist (e.g. llist_for_each_safe) is only safe AFTER entries
are deleted from the llist. Correct the way __folio_free_raw_hwp deletes
and frees raw_hwp_page entries in raw_hwp_list: first llist_del_all, then
kfree within llist_for_each_safe.

As of today, concurrent adding, deleting, and traversal on raw_hwp_list
from hugetlb.c and/or memory-failure.c are fine with each other. Note
this is guaranteed partly by the lock-free nature of llist, and partly
by holding hugetlb_lock and/or mf_mutex. For example, as llist_del_all
is lock-free with itself, folio_clear_hugetlb_hwpoison()s from
__update_and_free_hugetlb_folio and memory_failure won't need explicit
locking when freeing the raw_hwp_list. New code that manipulates
raw_hwp_list must be careful to ensure the concurrency correctness.
