Commit b15c87263a69 ("hwpoison, memory_hotplug: allow hwpoisoned pages to
be offlined) add page poison checks in do_migrate_range in order to make
offline hwpoisoned page possible by introducing isolate_lru_page and
try_to_unmap for hwpoisoned page. However folio lock must be held before
calling try_to_unmap. Add it to fix this problem.
Waring will be produced if filio is not locked during unmap:

The comment above says "have elevated reference counts", but I I wonder
if this code could race with un-poisoning (although probably a rare event).
If there is an elevated reference already, why not move that chunk after
the folio_try_get() and just drop the comment that describes the implied
magic?
I mean, migration of hwpoison is dangerous either way, so that's not the
biggest problem I guess :)

AFAICS, this will open the race window with unpoisoning:
unpoison_memory do_migrate_range
folio_try_get
if (folio_ref_count(folio) > 1)
return -EBUSY;
But this should be benign one and userspace can simply retry later.
Thanks.

AFAICT during memory_failure, the refcount will not be cleared for poisoned page in order to keep it away from free buddy pages.
So move that chunk after the folio_try_get() do seems nice and poisoned free pages do seems weird to me.

If the "free" poisoned pages have a raised refcount, folio_try_get()
would be able to grab them to essentially skip them (not mapped).
If the "free" poisoned pages don't have a raised refcount (impossible
right now IIRC), folio_try_get() would skip, them, which would be the
right thing to do.
So I think that should work.
