Anshuman Khandual c3114a84f7 mm: hugetlb: soft-offline: dissolve source hugepage after successful migration
Currently hugepage migrated by soft-offline (i.e.  due to correctable
memory errors) is contained as a hugepage, which means many non-error
pages in it are unreusable, i.e.  wasted.

This patch solves this issue by dissolving source hugepages into buddy.
As done in previous patch, PageHWPoison is set only on a head page of
the error hugepage.  Then in dissoliving we move the PageHWPoison flag
to the raw error page so that all healthy subpages return back to buddy.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
