3.11.10.3 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jianguo Wu <wujianguo at huawei.com>
commit a49ecbcd7b0d5a1cda7d60e03df402dd0ef76ac8 upstream.
After a successful hugetlb page migration by soft offline, the source
page will either be freed into hugepage_freelists or buddy(over-commit
page). If page is in buddy, page_hstate(page) will be NULL. It will
hit a NULL pointer dereference in dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page().
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000058
IP: [<ffffffff81163761>] dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page+0x131/0x1d0
PGD c23762067 PUD c24be2067 PMD 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
So check PageHuge(page) after call migrate_pages() successfully.
