[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.
