From: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm/madvise: pass return code of memory_failure() to userspace
Currently the return value of memory_failure() is not passed to userspace
when madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) is used. This is inconvenient for test
programs that want to know the result of error handling. So let's return
it to the caller as we already do in the MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE case.
