[PATCH v10 4/6] mm/hwpoison: return -EFAULT when copy fail in copy_mc_[user]_highpage()

From: Tong Tiangen <hidden>
Date: 2024-01-29 13:47:11
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - core, memory management - thp (transparent huge page), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds

If hardware errors are encountered during page copying, returning the bytes
not copied is not meaningful, and the caller cannot do any processing on
the remaining data. Returning -EFAULT is more reasonable, which represents
a hardware error encountered during the copying.
