Yes, I've just did. Sorry it took that long.
Looks good, so

BTW, what's the plan with this series? Will you take care of it, or should
all arch maintainers take their parts?
can I improve this patch in any way ?
There are a few more or less minor things:
- You can remove "write" completely, as it's now superseded by
FAULT_FLAG_WRITE in "flags",
- Please also port the comments that were added to x86. They make
life easier for the casual reader.
Thanks!

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.
