powerpc/mm: Handle hypervisor pte insert failure in __hash_page_huge
If the hypervisor gives us an error on a hugepage insert we panic. The normal page code already handles this by returning an error instead and we end calling low_hash_fault which will just kill the task if possible. The patch below does a similar thing for the hugepage case. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
