[ Upstream commit 8295d535e2aa198bdf65a4045d622df38955ffe2 ] Patch series "HWPoison: Refactor get page interface", v2. This patch (of 3): When we want to grab a refcount via get_any_page, we call __get_any_page that calls get_hwpoison_page to get the actual refcount. get_any_page() is only there because we have a sort of retry mechanism in case the page we met is unknown to us or if we raced with an allocation. Also __get_any_page() prints some messages about the page type in case the page was a free page or the page type was unknown, but if anything, we only need to print a message in case the pagetype was unknown, as that is reporting an error down the chain. Let us merge get_any_page() and __get_any_page(), and let the message be printed in soft_offline_page. While we are it, we can also remove the 'pfn' parameter as it is no longer used.

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.
