Naoya Horiguchi a3e0f9e47d mm/memory-failure.c: transfer page count from head page to tail page after split thp 
Memory failures on thp tail pages cause kernel panic like below:

   CR2: 0000000000000058

The reasoning of this problem is shown below:
 - when we have a memory error on a thp tail page, the memory error
   handler grabs a refcount of the head page to keep the thp under us.
 - Before unmapping the error page from processes, we split the thp,
   where page refcounts of both of head/tail pages don't change.
 - Then we call try_to_unmap() over the error page (which was a tail
   page before). We didn't pin the error page to handle the memory error,
   this error page is freed and removed from LRU list.
 - We never have the error page on LRU list, so the first page state
   check returns "unknown page," then we move to the second check
   with the saved page flag.
 - The saved page flag have PG_tail set, so the second page state check
   returns "hugepage."
 - We call me_huge_page() for freed error page, then we hit the above panic.

The root cause is that we didn't move refcount from the head page to the
tail page after split thp.  So this patch suggests to do this.

This panic was introduced by commit 524fca1e73 ("HWPOISON: fix
misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages").  Note that we
did have the same refcount problem before this commit, but it was just
ignored because we had only first page state check which returned "unknown
page." The commit changed the refcount problem from "doesn't work" to
"kernel panic."
