When hwpoison_inject module is removed, hwpoison_filter_* parameters
should be reset. Otherwise these parameters will have non-default values
at next insmod time.

v2:
 Add missing call to reset_hwpoison_filter() per Andrew. Thanks.

There is a clear layering broken here. We have mm/memory-failure.c using
values and mm/hwpoison-inject.c defining the values. Both with a
potentially different life time. Shouldn't that be fix instead?

In fact, we have mm/memory-failure.c defining and using these values while they can
only be modified through mm/hwpoison-inject.c from userspace. The common usecase should be:

1. User set hwpoison filter parameters first through mm/hwpoison-inject.c.
2. Then doing memory hwpoison test through mm/hwpoison-inject.c.

hwpoison_filter_* parameters are only used for test from userspace. From this perspective,
this potentially different life time doesn't break anything. Or am I miss something?

Thanks.

Yes, this is exactly what I mean by broken layering that should be
fixed.

Why does this need to be done through different modules? Why it cannot
be part of the memory-filure.c?

This is a bold idea for me. :) I think it can be part of the memory-filure.c.
So CONFIG_HWPOISON_INJECT should be removed from the world and then make
hwpoison-inject default on when MEMORY_FAILURE is configured?

Thanks.

I would start by moving code into mm/hwpoison-inject.c. Whether this
should also remove CONFIG_HWPOISON_INJECT is a different question. I
am not really sure a debugfs interface warrants a config option. Anyway
two things for two separate patches

Thanks for your suggestion. :) Will try to do it when I am free.
Thanks.
