Sure, I can update this to be -ENOMEM if that is appropriate. I am not
sure it actually matters though, since as far as I can tell, this
function is only called via the ->store() call in __frontswap_store(),
which is only called by frontswap_store(), which in turn is only called by
swap_writepage() and its return value is only checked against 0, no
other error values. I could be missing a macro call though.
If I should send a v2, please let me know.
Cheers,
Nathan
