mm: hwpoison: support recovery from ksm_might_need_to_copy()
When the kernel copies a page from ksm_might_need_to_copy(), but runs into
an uncorrectable error, it will crash since poisoned page is consumed by
kernel, this is similar to the issue recently fixed by Copy-on-write
poison recovery.
When an error is detected during the page copy, return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON
in do_swap_page(), and install a hwpoison entry in unuse_pte() when
swapoff, which help us to avoid system crash. Note, memory failure on a
KSM page will be skipped, but still call memory_failure_queue() to be
consistent with general memory failure process, and we could support KSM
page recovery in the feature.
