This is because I remove the sequence parameter to this service to rely on
vmf->sequence. But the sequence field is added to the vm fault structure in
the next patch. I'll move the define of vma_has_changed to the next patch
introducing the speculative page fault handler since this service is not
used in this patch.

Cheers,
Laurent.
