Agreed. If it fails, could we just not flush the folio?
Like this:
long copy_folio_from_user(...)
{
	...
	for (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++) {
		...
		rc = copy_from_user(kaddr, usr_src + i * PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE);
		...
		ret_val -= (PAGE_SIZE - rc);
		if (rc)
-                       break;
+                       return ret_val;
		cond_resched();
	}
	flush_dcache_folio(dst_folio);
	return ret_val;
}

Thanks for your review.
