Where we are checking if VMA has changed or not since the fault ?

We are not using this yet, may be can wait till late in the series.

This is always true ? Then we should not have all these if (!pte_map_lock(vmf))
check blocks down below.

If we remove the check block over pte_map_lock(), adding VM_FAULT_OOM
becomes redundant here.

Same here.

All these 'if' blocks seem redundant, unless I am missing something.
