I should add there is a trivial conflict with powerpc. The powerpc
branch in linux-next adds a new use of the memory_failure function,
while this code removes the unused trapno argument from the
memory_failure function. Conflict resolution just remove
the middle argument to memory_failure from the powerpc branch.
