From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
Since with remap_file_pages w/prot we may put PROT_NONE on a single PTE rather than a VMA, we must handle that inside handle_mm_fault.
This value must be handled in the arch-specific fault handlers, and this change must be ported to every arch on the world; now the new support is not in a separate syscall, so this *must* be done unless we want stability / security issues (the *BUG()* for unknown return values of handle_mm_fault() is triggerable from userspace calling remap_file_pages, and on other archs, we have VM_FAULT_OOM which is worse). However, I've alleviated this need via the previous "safety net" patch.
This patch includes the arch-specific part for i386.
Note, however, that _proper_ support is more intrusive; we can allow a write on a readonly VMA, but the arch fault handler currently stops that; it should test VM_NONUNIFORM instead and call handle_mm_fault() in case it's set. And it will have to do on its own all protection checks. This is in the following patches.
