Subject: hugetlbfs: improve read HWPOISON hugepage
Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2023 00:18:32 +0000
When a hugepage contains HWPOISON pages, read() fails to read any byte of
the hugepage and returns -EIO, although many bytes in the HWPOISON
hugepage are readable.
Improve this by allowing hugetlbfs_read_iter returns as many bytes as
possible. For a requested range [offset, offset + len) that contains
HWPOISON page, return [offset, first HWPOISON page addr); the next read
attempt will fail and return -EIO.
