Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler
in struct vm_operations_struct. For now, this is
just documenting that the function returns a
VM_FAULT value rather than an errno.  Once all
instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become
a distinct type.

It'd be nicer to realign the 2nd and 3rd arguments
on the subsequent lines.

	vm_fault_t (*fault)(const struct vm_special_mapping *sm,
			    struct vm_area_struct *vma,
			    struct vm_fault *vmf);

Just now posted v3. Do you want me to send v4 again with
realignment ?

It'd be nicer if people didn't try to line up arguments at all and
just indented by an extra two tabs when they had to break a logical
line due to the 80-column limit.

Matthew, there are two different opinions. Which one to take ?

Unfortunately this is one of those "maintainer's choice" preferences
that drives new contributors crazy. Just go with the two tabs like
Matthew said and be done.

The only reason I mentioned it was the old function name
was aligned that way with arguments aligned to the open
parenthesis.

Renaming the function should keep the same alignment style
and not just rename the function.

-	int (*fault)(const struct vm_special_mapping *sm,
+	vm_fault_t (*fault)(const struct vm_special_mapping *sm,
 		     struct vm_area_struct *vma,
 		     struct vm_fault *vmf);

Here the previous indent was 2 tabs, 5 spaces
