Subject: [PATCH] io_uring/memmap: return bool from io_mem_alloc_compound()
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2025 11:25:54 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251015172555.2797238-1-csander@purestorage.com> (raw)

io_mem_alloc_compound() returns either ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) or a virtual
address for the allocated memory, but its caller just checks whether the
result is an error. Return a bool success value instead.
