Thanks for your patch. Some comments below.

Above checks seems unneeded. We already know it's thp?

This if block is broken. put_page() has been done when try_to_split_thp_page() fails?

action_result is missing?

Should hwpoison_filter() be called in this case?

Can we use hwpoison_user_mappings() directly here?

Thanks.
