mm/hwpoison: avoid the impact of hwpoison_filter() return value on mce handler
When the hwpoison page meets the filter conditions, it should not be regarded as successful memory_failure() processing for mce handler, but should return a distinct value, otherwise mce handler regards the error page has been identified and isolated, which may lead to calling set_mce_nospec() to change page attribute, etc. Here memory_failure() return -EOPNOTSUPP to indicate that the error event is filtered, mce handler should not take any action for this situation and hwpoison injector should treat as correct.
