Subject: [PATCH 4.11 084/115] mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when FOLL_HWPOISON is specified

4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Morse <james.morse@....com>

commit 9a291a7c9428155e8e623e4a3989f8be47134df5 upstream.

KVM uses get_user_pages() to resolve its stage2 faults.  KVM sets the
FOLL_HWPOISON flag causing faultin_page() to return -EHWPOISON when it
finds a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON.  KVM handles these hwpoison pages as a
special case.  (check_user_page_hwpoison())

When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well.
get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it
receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning
-EFAULT to the caller.  The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the
FOLL_ flags is missing.  The hwpoison special case is skipped, and
-EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit.

Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file
and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page().

With this, KVM works as expected.

This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled
MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86
too, so I think this should be a fix.  This doesn't apply earlier than
stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup.

[james.morse@....com: add vm_fault_to_errno() call to faultin_page()]
suggested.
