Patch series "A few fixup patches for mm", v2.
This series contains a few fixup patches to fix potential unexpected
return value, fix wrong swap entry type for hwpoisoned swapcache page and
so on. More details can be found in the respective changelogs.
This patch (of 3):
Hwpoisoned dirty swap cache page is kept in the swap cache and there's
simple interception code in do_swap_page() to catch it. But when trying
to swapoff, unuse_pte() will wrongly install a general sense of "future
accesses are invalid" swap entry for hwpoisoned swap cache page due to
unaware of such type of page. The user will receive SIGBUS signal without
expected BUS_MCEERR_AR payload. BTW, typo 'hwposioned' is fixed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
