Will do.

I actually agree. Moreover, since we're not planning on implementing
this (dynamic PTE/TLB loading is supported by the hardware, but we're
not really using it ATM), and I don't see any other user doing so at
this point, I'll just remove those two fault types altogether.

I'll add it (though it won't be used by OMAP since the hardware
doesn't tell us this info).

Thanks!
Ohad.
