THPs don't set the HWPoison bit on the head page.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20210316140947.GA3420@casper.infradead.org/

(and PAGEFLAG(HWPoison, hwpoison, PF_ANY))

By the way,

#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE
PAGEFLAG(HWPoison, hwpoison, PF_ANY)
TESTSCFLAG(HWPoison, hwpoison, PF_ANY)
#define __PG_HWPOISON (1UL << PG_hwpoison)
extern bool take_page_off_buddy(struct page *page);
#else
PAGEFLAG_FALSE(HWPoison)
#define __PG_HWPOISON 0
#endif

so there's no need for this
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE)
check, as it simply turns into

if (PageHuge(page) && 0)
else if (0)

and the compiler can optimise it all away.
