IOW, why not squash "[PATCH v2 > 39/42] example for future extension: mm:gup/writeback: add callbacks fo= r > inaccessible pages: error cases" into this patch. I can certainly squash this in.

That puzzles me a bit - what would happen if any of that fails= ? The convert _to_ secure has error handling. uv_convert_from_secure (the one that is used for arch_make_page_accessible can only fail if we mess u= p, e.g. an "export" on memory that we have donated to the ultravisor. > Or will it actually never fail for s390x (and all that error handling i= n > arch_make_page_accessible() is essentially dead code in real life?) So yes, if everything is setup properly this should not fail in real life and only we have a kernel (or firmware) bug.
