Provide a helper function for finishing write faults due to PTE being
read-only. The helper will be used by DAX to avoid the need of
complicating generic MM code with DAX locking specifics.

Looks like the second part of condition is never true here, right? Not
that it would matter, having the next patch in the queue.

Yeah, I had the condition like this to handle the standard set of return
values. And as you say, the next patch even makes this condition have a
real effect.
