[PATCH] unpaged: COW on VM_UNPAGED
Remove the BUG_ON(vma->vm_flags & VM_UNPAGED) from do_wp_page, and let it do
Copy-On-Write without touching the VM_UNPAGED's page counts - but this is
incomplete, because the anonymous page it inserts will itself need to be
handled, here and in other functions - next patch.
We still don't copy the page if the pfn is invalid, because the
copy_user_highpage interface does not allow it. But that's not been a problem
in the past: can be added in later if the need arises.
