The patch titled Subject: io-mapping: indicate mapping failure has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was io-mapping-indicate-mapping-failure.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------ From: "Michael J. Ruhl" michael.j.ruhl@intel.com Subject: io-mapping: indicate mapping failure

The !ATOMIC_IOMAP version of io_maping_init_wc will always return success, even when the ioremap fails.

Since the ATOMIC_IOMAP version returns NULL when the init fails, and callers check for a NULL return on error this is unexpected.

During a device probe, where the ioremap failed, a crash can look like this:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000210000 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 0 PID: 177 Comm: RIP: 0010:fill_page_dma [i915] gen8_ppgtt_create [i915] i915_ppgtt_create [i915] intel_gt_init [i915] i915_gem_init [i915] i915_driver_probe [i915] pci_device_probe really_probe driver_probe_device

The remap failure occurred much earlier in the probe. If it had been propagated, the driver would have exited with an error.

Return NULL on ioremap failure.
