[PATCH v4 04/12] dcssblk: Handle alloc_dax() -EOPNOTSUPP failure

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Thu Feb 08 2024 - 13:53:24 EST


In preparation for checking whether the architecture has data cache
aliasing within alloc_dax(), modify the error handling of dcssblk
dcssblk_add_store() to handle alloc_dax() -EOPNOTSUPP failures.

Considering that s390 is not a data cache aliasing architecture,
and considering that DCSSBLK selects DAX, a return value of -EOPNOTSUPP
from alloc_dax() should make dcssblk_add_store() fail.

For the transition, consider that alloc_dax() returning NULL is the
same as returning -EOPNOTSUPP.

Fixes: d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches")
