[PATCH 3/3] mm/memory-failure: inline add_to_kill_anon_file() logic at call sites

From: Ye Liu
Date: Fri Apr 18 2025 - 03:54:02 EST


From: Ye Liu <liuye@xxxxxxxxxx>

The add_to_kill_anon_file() helper function only checked for -EFAULT
return values before calling __add_to_kill(). Removes the unnecessary
wrapper and moves the addr == -EFAULT checks directly into
collect_procs_anon() and collect_procs_file().

This ensures that error handling is performed close to where the address
is derived (via page_mapped_in_vma() or page_address_in_vma()), rather
than being obscured inside a helper function.

No functional changes are introduced.
