      mm: special mapping nopage · b1d0e4f5
      Nick Piggin authored
      Convert special mapping install from nopage to fault.
      
      Because the "vm_file" is NULL for the special mapping, the generic VM
      code has messed up "vm_pgoff" thinking that it's an anonymous mapping
      and the offset does't matter.  For that reason, we need to undo the
      vm_pgoff offset that got added into vmf->pgoff.
      
      [ We _really_ should clean that up - either by making this whole special
        mapping code just use a real file entry rather than that ugly array of
        "struct page" pointers, or by just making the VM code realize that
        even if vm_file is NULL it may not be a regular anonymous mmap.
