The quilt patch titled Subject: mm/memory-failure: fix infinite UCE for VM_PFNMAP pfn has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-memory-failure-fix-infinite-uce-for-vm_pfnmap-pfn.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

------------------------------------------------------ From: Jinjiang Tu tujinjiang@huawei.com Subject: mm/memory-failure: fix infinite UCE for VM_PFNMAP pfn Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2025 15:32:09 +0800

When memory_failure() is called for a already hwpoisoned pfn, kill_accessing_process() will be called to kill current task. However, if the vma of the accessing vaddr is VM_PFNMAP, walk_page_range() will skip the vma in walk_page_test() and return 0.

Before commit aaf99ac2ceb7 ("mm/hwpoison: do not send SIGBUS to processes with recovered clean pages"), kill_accessing_process() will return EFAULT. For x86, the current task will be killed in kill_me_maybe().

However, after this commit, kill_accessing_process() simplies return 0, that means UCE is handled properly, but it doesn't actually. In such case, the user task will trigger UCE infinitely.

To fix it, add .test_walk callback for hwpoison_walk_ops to scan all vmas.
