Subject: [PATCH] arm64/pageattr: Propagate return value from __change_memory_common
Date: Mon,  3 Nov 2025 11:43:06 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251103061306.82034-1-dev.jain@arm.com> (raw)

Post a166563e7ec3 ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when rodata=full"),
__change_memory_common has a real chance of failing due to split failure.
Before that commit, this line was introduced in c55191e96caa, still having
a chance of failing if it needs to allocate pagetable memory in
apply_to_page_range, although that has never been observed to be true.
In general, we should always propagate the return value to the caller.

Fixes: c55191e96caa ("arm64: mm: apply r/o permissions of VM areas to its linear alias as well")
