Subject: [PATCH] zswap: do not crash the kernel on decompression failure
Currently, we crash the kernel when a decompression failure occurs in
zswap (either because of memory corruption, or a bug in the compression
algorithm). This is overkill. We should only SIGBUS the unfortunate
process asking for the zswap entry on zswap load, and skip the corrupted
entry in zswap writeback.
See [1] for a recent upstream discussion about this.
