From: Naoya Horiguchi on
In order to handle metadatum correctly, we should check whether the hugepage
we are going to access is HWPOISONed *before* incrementing mapcount,
adding the hugepage into pagecache or constructing anon_vma.
This patch also adds retry code when there is a race between
alloc_huge_page() and memory failure.
