mm/memory.c: allow different return codes for copy_nonpresent_pte()
Currently if copy_nonpresent_pte() returns a non-zero value it is assumed to be a swap entry which requires further processing outside the loop in copy_pte_range() after dropping locks. This prevents other values being returned to signal conditions such as failure which a subsequent change requires. Instead make copy_nonpresent_pte() return an error code if further processing is required and read the value for the swap entry in the main loop under the ptl.
