Subject[PATCH 2/3] HWPOISON: report sticky EIO for poisoned file
Date
From: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>

This makes the EIO reports on write(), fsync(), or the NFS close()
sticky enough. The only way to get rid of it may be

echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

Note that the impacted process will only be killed if it mapped the page.
XXX
via read()/write()/fsync() instead of memory mapped reads/writes, simply
because it's very hard to find them.
