Support for the `UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT` operation is not indicated in the

member of `struct uffdio_register` along with indications of support for
the `UFFDIO_COPY`, `UFFDIO_WAKE` and `UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE` operations (and
also the `UFFDIO_CONTINUE` operation supported since Linux 5.13 but
that is not documented by this man page yet.)
I thought it should have landed but indeed it's not. Copying Axel.
Ah, I mistakenly thought it got merged, but there were a few remaining
issues Alejandro wanted addressed first. I'll send a v3 of it later
today.
For what it's worth, as part of adding minor fault handling, we pretty
significantly change the ioctl field's behavior, and I rewrote a lot
of the documentation around it. So, it may conflict with this patch.
:/ Sorry about that.
Heh, I spoke too soon. My patch doesn't touch this after all, I think
the patches don't conflict. :) It's been a while since I looked at
it...
I guess the section (in my patch) that indicates supported ioctls in
`struct uffdio_register` would still need tweaking to mention
`UFFDIO_CONTINUE` though, so either one of the patches will need to
change or another little patch will be needed.
