I've been through them all and have convinced myself that either hey should never be synchronous or that there is no attempt to recover in kernel today (non memory things such as CXL protocol collapse, which might I guess be detected synchronously on a read - though I'd expect poison and a memory error first) so the correct thing to do is what you have here. Fiddly code though with a lot of paths, so more eyes welcome!
