selftests: memory-hotplug: avoid spamming logs with dump_page(), ratio limit hot...

While the offline memory test obey ratio limit, the same test with
error injection does not and tries to offline all the hotpluggable

entries, slowing system down (to the point the test itself timesout and
gets terminated) and excessive fs occupation:
