[patch 21/39] remap_file_pages protection support: use EOVERFLOW ret code

From: blaisorblade
Date: Fri Aug 12 2005 - 13:49:18 EST



From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@xxxxxxxx>

Use -EOVERFLOW ("Value too large for defined data type") rather than -EINVAL
when we cannot store the file offset in the PTE.
