Commit d065bd810b6deb67d4897a14bfe21f8eb526ba99 (mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer) and commit 37b23e0525d393d48a7d59f870b3bc061a30ccdb (x86,mm: make pagefault killable) The above commits introduced changes into the x86 pagefault handler for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable. These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial during OOM killer invocation. Port these changes to m68k.
