Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that
encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear
mappings.
I can't see why the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything
about it, except for the fact that the ->nopage handler didn't quite pass
down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff
rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway. And
having the nopage handler install the pte itself is sort of nasty.
This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and
->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place
so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if
everyone switches over.
The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings
are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed
stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate
the two.
After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in
pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway.
NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and
no users have hit mainline yet.
