Patch series "mm: memory_failure: unmap poisoned folio during migrate
properly", v3.

Fix two bugs during folio migration if the folio is poisoned.


This patch (of 3):

Commit 6da6b1d ("mm/hwpoison: convert TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON to
TTU_HWPOISON") introduce TTU_HWPOISON to replace TTU_IGNORE_HWPOISON in
order to stop send SIGBUS signal when accessing an error page after a
memory error on a clean folio.  However during page migration, anon folio
must be set with TTU_HWPOISON during unmap_*().  For pagecache we need
some policy just like the one in hwpoison_user_mappings to set this flag. 
So move this policy from hwpoison_user_mappings to unmap_poisoned_folio to
handle this warning properly.

Warning will be produced during unamp poison folio with the following log:

During device unmapping (triggered by module unload or explicit unmap),
a refcount underflow occurs causing a use-after-free warning:

Befor this patch :-

The bug is a double kobject_put() on dev->kobj during device cleanup.

Kobject Lifecycle:
  kobject_init_and_add()  sets kobj.kref = 1  (initialization)
  kobject_put()           sets kobj.kref = 0  (should be called once)

* Before this patch:

rnbd_clt_unmap_device()
  rnbd_destroy_sysfs()
    kobject_del(&dev->kobj)                   [remove from sysfs]
    kobject_put(&dev->kobj)                   PUT #1 (WRONG!)
      kref: 1 to 0
      rnbd_dev_release()
        kfree(dev)                            [DEVICE FREED!]

  rnbd_destroy_gen_disk()                     [use-after-free!]

  rnbd_clt_put_dev()
    refcount_dec_and_test(&dev->refcount)
    kobject_put(&dev->kobj)                   PUT #2 (UNDERFLOW!)
      kref: 0 to -1                           [WARNING!]

The first kobject_put() in rnbd_destroy_sysfs() prematurely frees the
device via rnbd_dev_release(), then the second kobject_put() in
rnbd_clt_put_dev() causes refcount underflow.

* After this patch :-

Remove kobject_put() from rnbd_destroy_sysfs(). This function should
only remove sysfs visibility (kobject_del), not manage object lifetime.

Call Graph (FIXED):

rnbd_clt_unmap_device()
  rnbd_destroy_sysfs()
    kobject_del(&dev->kobj)                   [remove from sysfs only]
                                              [kref unchanged: 1]

  rnbd_destroy_gen_disk()                     [device still valid]

  rnbd_clt_put_dev()
    refcount_dec_and_test(&dev->refcount)
    kobject_put(&dev->kobj)                   ONLY PUT (CORRECT!)
      kref: 1 to 0                            [BALANCED]
      rnbd_dev_release()
        kfree(dev)                            [CLEAN DESTRUCTION]

This follows the kernel pattern where sysfs removal (kobject_del) is
separate from object destruction (kobject_put).
