Linux kernel source tree
Recent changes by patch "mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists" makes kernels determine whether to use pcp by pcp_allowed_order(), which breaks soft-offline for hugetlb pages. Soft-offline dissolves a migration source page, then removes it from buddy free list, so it's assumed that any subpage of the soft-offlined hugepage are recognized as a buddy page just after returning from dissolve_free_huge_page(). pcp_allowed_order() returns true for hugetlb, so this assumption is no longer true. So disable pcp during dissolve_free_huge_page() and take_page_off_buddy() to prevent soft-offlined hugepages from linking to pcp lists. Soft-offline should not be common events so the impact on performance should be minimal. And I think that the optimization of Mel's patch could benefit to hugetlb so zone_pcp_disable() is called only in hwpoison context.

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.
