Subject: [PATCH v1 09/10] mm/memory_hotplug: teach offline_pages() to not try forever
Date:   Wed, 23 May 2018 17:11:50 +0200
Message-Id: <20180523151151.6730-10-david@redhat.com>
In-Reply-To: <20180523151151.6730-1-david@redhat.com>
References: <20180523151151.6730-1-david@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

It can easily happen that we get stuck forever trying to offline pages -
e.g. on persistent errors.

Let's add a way to change this behavior and fail fast.

This is interesting if offline_pages() is called from a driver and we
just want to find some block to offline.
