/*
* Original kernel header comment:
*
* Kernel pointers have redundant information, so we can use a
* scheme where we can return either an error code or a normal
* pointer with the same return value.
*
* This should be a per-architecture thing, to allow different
* error and pointer decisions.
*
* Userspace note:
* The same principle works for userspace, because 'error' pointers
* fall down to the unused hole far from user space, as described
* in Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.rst for x86_64 arch:
*
* 0000000000000000 - 00007fffffffffff (=47 bits) user space, different per mm hole caused by [48:63] sign extension
* ffffffffffe00000 - ffffffffffffffff (=2 MB) unused hole
*
* It should be the same case for other architectures, because
* this code is used in generic kernel code.
