Well 'on-going' would be over stating it. We did those bits

This patch adds the pagefault_count to the thread_info of all
architectures. It will be used to count the pagefault_disable() levels
on a per-thread basis.
We are not reusing the preempt_count as this is per cpu on x86 and we want to
demangle pagefault_disable() from preemption in the future.
