Subject: [PATCH 3.16 079/131] openrisc: drop _PAGE_FILE and
 pte_file()-related helpers

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 3824e3cf7e865b2ff0b71de23b16e332fe6a853a upstream.

We've replaced remap_file_pages(2) implementation with emulation.  Nobody
creates non-linear mapping anymore.
