Why is it good approach? It's not abvious to me.

My main motivation was to simplify return code handling. I don't want to return -EHWPOISON to user space and I don't want to convert it into something misleading like -ENOMEM or -EINVAL. So I decided to handle such stuff internally.

What would be you take on that?
