[PATCH] mm: mremap correct rmap accounting
Nick Piggin points out that page accounting on MIPS multiple ZERO_PAGEs
is not maintained by its move_pte, and could lead to freeing a ZERO_PAGE.
Instead of complicating that move_pte, just forget the minor optimization
when mremapping, and change the one thing which needed it for correctness
- filemap_xip use ZERO_PAGE(0) throughout instead of according to address.
[ "There is no block device driver one could use for XIP on mips
platforms" - Carsten Otte ]
