------------------------------------------------------ From: Miaohe Lin linmiaohe@huawei.com Subject: mm: memory-failure: fix potential unexpected return value from unpoison_memory() Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2023 19:56:41 +0800
If unpoison_memory() fails to clear page hwpoisoned flag, return value ret is expected to be -EBUSY. But when get_hwpoison_page() returns 1 and fails to clear page hwpoisoned flag due to races, return value will be unexpected 1 leading to users being confused. And there's a code smell that the variable "ret" is used not only to save the return value of unpoison_memory(), but also the return value from get_hwpoison_page(). Make a further cleanup by using another auto-variable solely to save the return value of get_hwpoison_page() as suggested by Naoya.
