Subject: mm/memory-failure: fix missing ->mf_stats count in hugetlb poison
Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2026 01:07:50 -0700
When a newly poisoned subpage ends up in an already poisoned hugetlb
folio, 'num_poisoned_pages' is incremented, but the per node ->mf_stats is
not. Fix the inconsistency by designating action_result() to update them
both.
While at it, define __get_huge_page_for_hwpoison() return values in terms
of symbol names for better readibility. Also rename
folio_set_hugetlb_hwpoison() to hugetlb_update_hwpoison() since the
function does more than the conventional bit setting and the fact three
possible return values are expected.
