Hugetlb migration does not check whether the source folio contains
hwpoisoned memory before trying to move it. After the folio is unmapped,
the move path can reach hugetlbfs_migrate_folio() and then
migrate_huge_page_move_mapping(), which copies the source folio into the
new folio.
That copy uses folio_mc_copy(), so architectures with recoverable
machine-check copy support can fail the copy with -EHWPOISON. However,
there is no reason to attempt the move once the source folio is already
known to contain poisoned memory. Architectures without such copy_mc
support also fall back to a normal copy, which can consume the poison.
Check folio_contain_hwpoisoned_page() after locking the source hugetlb
folio and fail the migration with -EHWPOISON before unmapping or copying
it. This covers both a hwpoisoned hugetlb head folio and large folios
that only have the has_hwpoisoned summary flag set.
