Hi Suren
Thank you for reviewing this patch and for your suggestions.
The description looks clearer now. I will revise it based on your suggestions and send out version 2.
Best regards Hao

The PG_hwpoison page will be caught and isolated on the entrance to the free buddy page pool.
But for poisoned pages which software injected errors, we can reclaim it through unpoison_memory.
So mark codetags for it as empty,just like when a page is first added to the buddy system.
It was detected by [1] and the following WARN occurred:
Hi Hao, Thanks for fixing this. I find this description a bit unclear. How about something like this:
When PG_hwpoison pages are freed, they are treated differently in free_pages_prepare() and instead of being released they are isolated. Page allocation tag counters are decremented at this point since the page is considered not in use. Later on when such pages are released by unpoison_memory(), the allocation tag counters will be decremented again and the following warning gets reported:

To fix this, clear the page tag reference after the page got isolated and accounted for.
Fixes: a8fc28dad6d5 ("alloc_tag: introduce clear_page_tag_ref() helper function")
This would be more appropriate: Fixes: d224eb0287fb ("codetag: debug: mark codetags for reserved pages as empty")
