Subject: [PATCH] exporting address to the page fault notifier

I made a module using the notifier scheme which already exists inside 
the kernel. The problem is that the page fault notifier doesn't show the 
address which happened the fault.

This little patch increments this functionality. I chose to break the 
ABI putting a new field in 'die_args' instead build a new struct only 
for it. The patch and the module notifier comes attached.

my regards
