s390/kvm,gaccess: fix guest access return code handling
Guest access functions like copy_to/from_guest() call __guestaddr_to_user()
which in turn call gmap_fault() in order to translate a guest address to a
user space address.
In error case __guest_addr_to_user() returns either -EFAULT or -ENOMEM.
The copy_to/from_guest functions just pass these return values down to the
callers.
The -ENOMEM case however is problematic since there are several places
which access guest memory like:
rc = copy_to_guest(...);
if (rc == -EFAULT)
error_handling();
So in case of -ENOMEM the code assumes that the guest memory access
succeeded even though it failed.
This can cause guest data or state corruption.
If __guestaddr_to_user() returns -ENOMEM the meaning is that a valid user
space mapping exists, but there was not enough memory available when trying
to build the guest mapping. In other words an out-of-memory situation
occured.
For normal user space accesses an out-of-memory situation causes the page
fault handler to map -ENOMEM to -EFAULT (see fixup code in do_no_context()).
We need to do exactly the same for the kvm gaccess functions.
So __guestaddr_to_user() should just map all error codes to -EFAULT.
