[PATCH] mm: soft-offline: fix num_poisoned_pages counting on concurrent events

[Naoya Horiguchi]

If multiple soft offline events hit one free page/hugepage concurrently,
soft_offline_page() can handle the free page/hugepage multiple times,
which makes num_poisoned_pages counter increased more than once.
This patch fixes this wrong counting by checking TestSetPageHWPoison for
normal papes and by checking the return value of dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page()
for hugepages.

# This problem might happen before 3.14, but it's rare and non-critical,
# so I want this patch to be backported to stable trees only if the patch
# cleanly applies (i.e. v3.14+).
