Re: [PATCH v2] x86/fault: Send a SIGBUS to user process always for hwpoison page access.

Hi Aili,

When one page is already hwpoisoned by AO action, process may not be
killed, the process mapping this page may make a syscall include this
page and result to trigger a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON fault, if it's in kernel
mode it may be fixed by fixup_exception. Current code will just return
error code to user process.

This is not sufficient, we should send a SIGBUS to the process and log
the info to console, as we can't trust the process will handle the error
correctly.

This part contains some duplicated code with do_sigbus(), so some refactoring (like
adding a common function) would be more helpful.

Thanks,
