[PATCH] s390/pci: Fix s390_pci_mmio_write syscall error return without MIO

From: Niklas Schnelle

Date: Wed Jul 22 2026 - 09:44:52 EST


On a machine without PCI memory-I/O (MIO) support or when running with
pci=nomio the s390 specific PCI MMIO write syscall checks if the MMIO
cookie is above ZPCI_IOMAP_ADDR_BASE as a sanity check before even
trying to perform the MMIO. If this check fails the return value was
left unchanged and thus 0 from prior operations falsely indicating
success. This could potentially confuse user-space into falsely
believing the MMIO, on a mapping not valid for MMIO was successful.

Fix this by setting the return value to -EFAULT prior to the check
following the same pattern as elsewhere in the same function.
