Hi Linus and Kanoj,

The following patch makes mmap MAP_ANON|MAP_SHARED possible.

I had to change the i_dev input for /dev/zero shared mappings but I
think this is at least not worse than before. The inode does
definitely not belong to the block device /dev/zero is located on.

Greetings
Christoph
