From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horigu...@ah.jp.nec.com> commit b38e5962f8ed0d2a2b28a887fc2221f7f41db119 upstream.
The pass/fail of soft offline should be judged by checking whether the raw error page was finally contained or not (i.e. the result of set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page()), but current code do not work like that. It might lead us to misjudge the test result when set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() fails. Without this fix, there are cases where madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) may not offline the original page and will not return an error.
