4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Su Yue <suy.fnst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 090a127afa8f73e9618d4058d6755f7ec7453dd6 upstream. In cow_file_range(), create_io_em() may fail, but its return value is not recorded. Then return value may be 0 even it failed which is a wrong behavior. Let cow_file_range() return PTR_ERR(em) if create_io_em() failed.
