Minor faults are appropriately relayed to userspace in the fault path, for VMAs with the relevant flag. This commit doesn't hook up the UFFDIO_CONTINUE ioctl for shmem-backed minor faults, though, so userspace doesn't yet have a way to resolve such faults. Because of this, we also don't yet advertise this as a supported feature. That will be done in a separate commit when the feature is fully implemented.
