Patch series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications".
Cleanup madvise entry level code for cleaner request validations and
classifications.
This patch (of 4):
To reduce redundant open-coded checks of CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE and
MADV_{HWPOISON,SOFT_OFFLINE} in madvise_[un]lock(), is_memory_failure() is
introduced. madvise_do_behavior() is still doing the same open-coded
check, though. Use is_memory_failure() instead.
To avoid build failure on !CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE case, implement an empty
madvise_inject_error() under the config. Also move the definition of
is_memory_failure() inside #ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE clause for
madvise_inject_error() definition, to reduce duplicated ifdef clauses.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
