Hi Junio,
In the commit f48000fcbe100, you've forced the caller to use
MAP_PRIVATE in the alternative mmap implementation dropping write-back
support. Could you kindly explain the rationale for this? David's SVN
exporter uses mmap with MAP_SHARED, and we figured that the merge
immediately breaks this functionality.

Yank writing-back support from gitfakemmap.
We do not write through our use of mmap(), so make sure callers pass
MAP_PRIVATE and remove support for writing changes back.
