But I guess the "issue" is compound pages that are not huge pages or transparent huge pages.THPs don't set the HWPoison bit on the head page. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/[email protected]/
Oh, okay -- I was missing that we actually already set the HWPoison bit before trying to split via TestSetPageHWPoison(). I thought for a second that if splitting fails, we don't set any HWPoison bit.
