The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: zsmalloc: return -ENOSPC rather than -EINVAL in zs_malloc while size is too large
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-zsmalloc-return-enospc-rather-than-einval-in-zs_malloc-while-size-is-too-large.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: zsmalloc: return -ENOSPC rather than -EINVAL in zs_malloc while size is too large

This is the case the "compressed" data is larger than the original data,
it is better to return -ENOSPC which can help zswap record a poor compr
rather than an invalid request. Then we get more friendly counting for
reject_compress_poor in debugfs.
bool zswap_store(struct folio *folio)
{
...
ret = zpool_malloc(zpool, dlen, gfp, &handle);
if (ret == -ENOSPC) {
zswap_reject_compress_poor++;
goto put_dstmem;
}
if (ret) {
zswap_reject_alloc_fail++;
goto put_dstmem;
}
...
}
Also, zbud_alloc() and z3fold_alloc() are returning ENOSPC in the same
case, eg
static int z3fold_alloc(struct z3fold_pool *pool, size_t size, gfp_t gfp,
unsigned long *handle)
{
...
if (!size || (gfp & __GFP_HIGHMEM))
return -EINVAL;
if (size > PAGE_SIZE)
return -ENOSPC;
...
}
