mm/memory.c: Allow different return codes for copy_nonpresent_pte()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Currently if copy_nonpresent_pte() returns a non-zero value it is
assumed to be a swap entry which requires further processing outside the
loop in copy_pte_range() after dropping locks. This prevents other
values being returned to signal conditions such as failure which a
subsequent change requires.

Instead make copy_nonpresent_pte() return an error code if further
processing is required and read the value for the swap entry in the main
loop under the ptl.
