you are still doing a white space changes here.

I've grepped for usage of PAGE_SHARED and PAGE_READONLY and found
arch/mips/kvm/mmu.c and arch/mips/kernel/vdso.c. I wonder

1. Is this usage correct or should we use protection_map[X] ?
2. Are this still correct after the change in this patch ?

Right now I'm in favour to fist clean up asm/pgtable.h to get rid
of all unneeded PAGE_XXX defines and make mm/cache.c rixi part
more readable before applying this patch.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea.                                                [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
