The code looks good but I ran into some failures while running the
hugepages hwpoison tests from mce-tests suite[0]. I get a bad pmd error
in dmesg -

[  344.165544] mm/pgtable-generic.c:33: bad pmd 000000083af00074.

I suspect that this is due to the huge pte accessors not correctly
dealing with poisoned entries (which are represented as swap entries).

I am investigating the failure but could you try running the tests at
your end as well.

To run the tests, I cloned the repository[0]. It test needs a simple fix
at the end of this mail to run correctly. With that applied and running
as root -

# cd mce-test/cases/function/hwpoison
# ./run_hugepage.sh

    Use correct return type for getopt_long

    getopt_long returns an int. Fix the return type to avoid issues when
    checking for negative error codes on architectures with unsigned char,
    e.g., arm.
