The crux of the matter is that historically we left poisoned pages in the
buddy system because we have some checks in place when allocating a page
that are gatekeeper for poisoned pages. Unfortunately, we do have other
users (e.g: compaction [1]) that scan buddy freelists and try to get a
page from there without checking whether the page is HWPoison.
As I stated already, I think it is fundamentally wrong to keep HWPoison
pages within the buddy systems, checks in place or not.
Let us fix this the same way we did for soft_offline [2], taking the page
off the buddy freelist so it is completely unreachable.
Note that this is fairly simple to trigger, as we only need to poison free
buddy pages (madvise MADV_HWPOISON) and then run some sort of memory
stress system.
Just for a matter of reference, I put a dump_page() in compaction_alloc()
to trigger for HWPoison patches:

After that, if e.g: a process faults in the page, it will get killed
unexpectedly.
Fix it by containing the page immediatelly.
Besides that, two more changes can be noticed:
* MF_DELAYED no longer suits as we are fixing the issue by containing
the page immediately, so it does no longer rely on the allocation-time
checks to stop HWPoison to be handed over.
gain unless it is unpoisoned, so we fixed the situation.
Because of that, let us use MF_RECOVERED from now on.
* The second block that handles PageBuddy pages is no longer needed:
We call shake_page and then check whether the page is Buddy
because shake_page calls drain_all_pages, which sends pcp-pages back to
the buddy freelists, so we could have a chance to handle free pages.
Currently, get_hwpoison_page already calls drain_all_pages, and we call
get_hwpoison_page right before coming here, so we should be on the safe
side.
