Time to get this old series out again. Since last time, Bibo found a
couple of the same cases I did (for MIPS only) which I extend to all
archs, and I dropped the "make the pte dirty if the fork parent was
dirty" due to Linus pointing out a dirty PTE costs more to unmap. It
didn't seem to help a great deal anyway on the access-side fortunately.
Thanks,
Nick
