I've got the patches in -mm now. I hope they will get merged when the

I didn't submit the ->page_mkwrite conversion yet, because I didn't
have any callers to look at. It is is slightly less trivial than for
nopage and nopfn, so having David's block_page_mkwrite is helpful.


Yes.  I was just wondering whether it makes more sense to do this
functionality directly ontop of ->fault instead of converting i over
real soon.

I would personally prefer that, but I don't want to block David's
patch from being merged if the ->fault patches do not get in next
cycle. If the fault patches do make it in first, then yes we should
do the page_mkwrite conversion before merging David's patch.

I'll keep an eye on it, and try to do the right thing.

Thanks,
Nick
