HWPOISON: make semantics of IGNORED/DELAYED clear
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Change semantics for
- IGNORED: not handled; it may well be _unsafe_
- DELAYED: to be handled later; it is _safe_

With this change,
- IGNORED/FAILED mean (maybe) Error
- DELAYED/RECOVERED mean Success
