2.6.35-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]> commit e0dcd8a05be438b3d2e49ef61441ea3a463663f8 upstream. Al Viro observes that in the hugetlb case, handle_mm_fault() may return a value of the kind ENOSPC when its caller is expecting a value of the kind VM_FAULT_SIGBUS: fix alloc_huge_page()'s failure returns.
