I never really looked into that part of the 1394 drivers and I'm too
lazy to figure this out myself, so I ask:  What would trip the .fault
handler?  Would be good if I could runtime-test it.

It's an obscure and unimportant detail but I mention it nevertheless:
It's not necessary to Cc krh on drivers/ieee1394 stuff.  He is more into
drivers/firewire. :-)

Why not replacing the two 'goto error' by 'return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS'?  If
there is no cleanup after that error jump, I find it sensible to return
early.

Are you sure that the comment is wrong?  Could it be that there are
assumptions elsewhere which require page alignment?  (I should be able
to answer that, but I'm not.)
