HWPOISON: Copy si_addr_lsb to user
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The original hwpoison code added a new siginfo field si_addr_lsb to
pass the granuality of the fault address to user space. Unfortunately
this field was never copied to user space. Fix this here.

I added explicit checks for the MCEERR codes to avoid having
to patch all potential callers to initialize the field.
