[PATCH 3/9] userfaultfd/shmem: support minor fault registration for shmem

From: Axel Rasmussen
Date: Thu Apr 08 2021 - 19:43:44 EST


This patch allows shmem-backed VMAs to be registered for minor faults.
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.
