[PATCH 00/10] Push the vm_fault_t conversion further

From: Matthew Wilcox
Date: Tue Aug 28 2018 - 10:58:37 EST


This patch series reaps some of the benefits of the vm_fault_t work that
Souptick has been diligently plugging away at by converting insert_pfn()
to return a vm_fault_t.

Eventually, we'll be able to do the same thing to insert_page(),
but there's more work to be done converting all current callers of
vm_insert_page() to vmf_insert_page(), and this patch series provides
a nice clean-up.

Nicolas, I'd like your reviewed-by on patch 1 please.

Matthew Wilcox (10):
