mm/memory-failure.c: make non-LRU movable pages unhandlable
We can not really handle non-LRU movable pages in memory failure. Typically they are balloon, zsmalloc, etc. Assuming we run into a base (4K) non-LRU movable page, we could reach as far as identify_page_state(), it should not fall into any category except me_unknown. For the non-LRU compound movable pages, they could be taken for transhuge pages but it's unexpected to split non-LRU movable pages using split_huge_page_to_list in memory_failure. So we could just simply make non-LRU movable pages unhandlable to avoid these possible nasty cases.

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.
