PATCH 1/1 mm/memory-failure.c: recheck PageHuge() after hugetlb page migrate successfully

Changelog:
- Only set PageHWPoison on the error raw page if page is freed into buddy

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().

[  890.677918] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at

[  890.697314] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP

So check PageHuge(page) after call migrate_pages() successfully.
