Subject: [RFC PATCH v2] x86: explicit call to mmiotrace in do_page_fault()
The custom page fault handler list is replaced with a single function
pointer. All related functions and variables are renamed for
mmiotrace.

Thanks, I fixed it.
Sorry Jan and Pavel, I forgot to CC you in the first go of this
patch. If this makes it into mainline, I don't think it will be left
there for many kernel versions. I plan to make kmmio.h as the API towards
modules in the future, and the page fault callback will "disappear".
I think madwifi could use just fine the kmmio.h functions, if it
works basically just like mmiotrace.
