Careful here. Page fault can return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE even if we raced with
somebody modifying the PTE or if we installed a zero page. With shared DAX
mappings (and device dax does not allow anything else if I'm right) this
does not matter as given file offset is guaranteed to always map to the
same page but I think it deserves a comment.
