Thanks, this looks good to me.

I see you have a series of related issues, so I guess you want to get them
merged together. Let me know if I should put this patch onto my queue
seperately.

Trivia: this looks to have been copied from the mm page fault handling code,
hence the strange comment.

$ grep -r "info.si_code has been set above" arch/
arch/cris/mm/fault.c: /* info.si_code has been set above */
arch/m32r/mm/fault.c: /* info.si_code has been set above */
