3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 7fb08eca45270d0ae86e1ad9d39c40b7a55d0190 upstream. This replaces four copies in various stages of mm_fault_error() handling with just a single one. It will also allow for more natural placement of the unlocking after some further cleanup.
