A better changelog is desired, otherwise:

Why not append VM_FAULT_RETRY here, and indent the _OOM line?

Please don't relocate the comment...because that will break my
following patches(mainly Linus' filemap cleanups), which will
_heavily_ rework these chunks anyway. And make a hard time for Andrew
