The * Only catch write-faults on shared writable pages,
    * read-only shared pages can get COWed by
    * get_user_pages(.write=1, .force=1).

Yes, I went back and forth on that: I found it difficult to remove that
comment without also simplifying the VM_WRITE|VM_SHARED test immediately
above it, possibly even looking again at the ordering of those tests.

In the end I decided to leave changing it to when we do the other
little cleanups outside get_user_pages(), after it's become clear
whether the new EFAULT is troublesome or not.  Most of my testing
had been without any change in do_wp_page(), so I left that out.
