[PATCH] MCE: fix an error of mce_bad_pages statistics

[Xishi Qiu <qiuxishi@huawei.com>]

On x86 platform, if we use "/sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page" to offline a
free page twice, the value of mce_bad_pages will be added twice. So this is an error,
since the page was already marked HWPoison, we should skip the page and don't add the
value of mce_bad_pages.

$ cat /proc/meminfo | grep HardwareCorrupted

soft_offline_page()
	get_any_page()
		atomic_long_add(1, &mce_bad_pages)

The free page which marked HWPoison is still managed by page buddy allocator. So when
offlining it again, get_any_page() always returns 0 with
"pr_info("%s: %#lx free buddy page\n", __func__, pfn);".

When page is allocated, the PageBuddy is removed in bad_page(), then get_any_page()
returns -EIO with pr_info("%s: %#lx: unknown zero refcount page type %lx\n", so
mce_bad_pages will not be added.
