The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just
as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status").
We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through
the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to
an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted
drivers/filesystems.
We have already started sending out drivers/filesystems changes
to different maintainers.
