In case I misunderstood... what I've proposed will be simply:

I would prefer the 1st approach since it not only contains fewer lines
of changes because it does not touch callers, and also the naming in
the 2nd approach can be a bit confusing (calling
do_userfaultfd_wp_page in handle_pte_fault may let people think of an
userfault-only path but actually it covers the general path). But if
you really like the 2nd one I can use that too.
Thanks,
