[PATCH] mm: fix do_mbind return value

From: Kazutomo Yoshii
Date: Wed Mar 04 2015 - 21:20:16 EST


I noticed that numa_alloc_onnode() failed to allocate memory on a
specified node in v4.0-rc1. I added a code to check the return value
of walk_page_range() in queue_pages_range() so that do_mbind() only
returns an error number or zero.
