Re: [PATCH v3 2/2] iov_iter: Don't deal with iter->copy_mc in memcpy_from_iter_mc()

Would it make sense to always check for MCE in _copy_from_iter() and always
return a short transfer if we encounter one?  It looks pretty cheap in terms
of code size as the exception table stuff handles it, so we don't need to do
anything in the normal path.

I guess this would change the handling of memory errors and DAX errors.
