[RFC PATCH 1/4] mm: Have the mempolicy pagewalk to avoid positive callback return codes

[Thomas Hellström (VMware) <thomas_os@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The pagewalk code is being reworked to have positive callback return codes
do walk control. Avoid using positive return codes: "1" is replaced by
"-EBUSY".
