Subject: shmem: minor fixes to splice-read implementation
Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2023 14:05:54 -0700 (PDT)
HWPoison: my reading of folio_test_hwpoison() is that it only tests the
head page of a large folio, whereas splice_folio_into_pipe() will splice
as much of the folio as it can: so for safety we should also check the
has_hwpoisoned flag, set if any of the folio's pages are hwpoisoned.
(Perhaps that ugliness can be improved at the mm end later.)
The call to splice_zeropage_into_pipe() risked overrunning past EOF: ask
it for "part" not "len".
