4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@xxxxxxx> commit 8d13c0290655b883df9083a2a0af0d782bc38aef upstream. ND_CMD_CLEAR_ERROR command returns 'clear_err.cleared', the length of error actually cleared, which may be smaller than its requested 'len'. Change nvdimm_clear_poison() to call nvdimm_forget_poison() with 'clear_err.cleared' when this value is valid.
