MADV_WILLNEED currently does not read swapped out shmem pages back in.

Commit 0cd6144aadd2 ("mm + fs: prepare for non-page entries in page
cache radix trees") made find_get_page() filter exceptional radix tree
entries but failed to convert all find_get_page() callers that WANT
exceptional entries over to find_get_entry().  One of them is shmem swap
readahead in madvise, which now skips over any swap-out records.

Convert it to find_get_entry().

<title>mm/hwpoison: fix traversal of hugetlbfs pages to avoid printk flood</title>

madvise_hwpoison won't check if the page is small page or huge page and
traverses in small page granularity against the range unconditionally,
which result in a printk flood "MCE xxx: already hardware poisoned" if
the page is a huge page.

This patch fixes it by using compound_order(compound_head(page)) for
huge page iterator.

Testcase:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
#include &lt;errno.h&gt;

#define PAGES_TO_TEST 3
#define PAGE_SIZE	4096 * 512

int main(void)
{
	char *mem;
	int i;

	mem = mmap(NULL, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE,
			PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, 0, 0);

	if (madvise(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE, MADV_HWPOISON) == -1)
		return -1;

	munmap(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE);

	return 0;

<title>mm/hwpoison.c: fix held reference count after unpoisoning empty zero page</title>

madvise hwpoison inject will poison the read-only empty zero page if there
is no write access before poison.  Empty zero page reference count will be
increased for hwpoison, subsequent poison zero page will return directly
since page has already been set PG_hwpoison, however, page reference count
is still increased by get_user_pages_fast.  The unpoison process will
unpoison the empty zero page and decrease the reference count successfully
for the fist time, however, subsequent unpoison empty zero page will
return directly since page has already been unpoisoned and without
decrease the page reference count of empty zero page.

This patch fixes it by make madvise_hwpoison() put a page and return
immediately (without calling memory_failure() or soft_offline_page()) when
the page is already hwpoisoned.

Testcase:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
#include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
#include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
#include &lt;errno.h&gt;

#define PAGES_TO_TEST 3
#define PAGE_SIZE	4096

int main(void)
{
	char *mem;
	int i;

	mem = mmap(NULL, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE,
			PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);

	if (madvise(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE, MADV_HWPOISON) == -1)
		return -1;

	munmap(mem, PAGES_TO_TEST * PAGE_SIZE);

	return 0;
}

Add printk to dump page reference count:

[   93.075959] Injecting memory failure for page 0x19d0 at 0xb77d8000
[   93.076207] MCE 0x19d0: non LRU page recovery: Ignored

In madvise(), there doesn't seem to be any reason for taking the
&amp;current-&gt;mm-&gt;mmap_sem before start and len_in have been validated.
Incidentally, this removes the need for the out: label.

Make madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch.  If memory is
swapout, this syscall can do swapin prefetch.  It has no impact if the
memory isn't swapout.
