It is possible for poisoned hugetlb pages to reside on the free lists.
The huge page allocation routines which dequeue entries from the free
lists make a point of avoiding poisoned pages. There is no such check
and avoidance in the demote code path.
If a hugetlb page on the is on a free list, poison will only be set in
the head page rather then the page with the actual error. If such a
page is demoted, then the poison flag may follow the wrong page. A page
without error could have poison set, and a page with poison could not
have the flag set.
Check for poison before attempting to demote a hugetlb page. Also,
return -EBUSY to the caller if only poisoned pages are on the free list.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
