commit 3149c79f3cb0e2e3bafb7cfadacec090cbd250d3 upstream.
In some cases it appears the invalidation of a hwpoisoned page fails because the page is still mapped in another process. This can cause a program to be continuously restarted and die when it page faults on the page that was not invalidated. Avoid that problem by unmapping the hwpoisoned page when we find it.
Another issue is that sometimes we end up oopsing in finish_fault, if the code tries to do something with the now-NULL vmf->page. I did not hit this error when submitting the previous patch because there are several opportunities for alloc_set_pte to bail out before accessing vmf->page, and that apparently happened on those systems, and most of the time on other systems, too.
However, across several million systems that error does occur a handful of times a day. It can be avoided by returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE which will cause do_read_fault to return before calling finish_fault.
