Subject: [PATCH 3.16 055/131] mm: drop support of non-linear mapping from
fault codepath
3.16.59-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>
commit 9b4bdd2ffab9557ac43af7dff02e7dab1c8c58bd upstream.
We don't create non-linear mappings anymore. Let's drop code which
handles them on page fault.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
- Deleted code is slightly different
- Adjust context]
