This patchset removes the 'nopage' from the tree.
I've gone through all the drivers and converted them to use fault as best
I can. When using fault, I've also tried to use vmf->pgoff rather than the
virtual address to index the content (which is preferred). Mostly it has
been OK, but DRM is a bit

The current pci_assign_unassigned_resources() code doesn't work properly
on 32 bits platforms with 64 bits resources. The main reason is the use
of unsigned long in various places instead of resource_size_t.
This fixes it, along with some tricks to avoid casting to 64 bits on
platforms that don't

The difference between ip=off and ip=::off has been a cause of much
confusion. Document how each behaves, and do not contradict ourselves
by saying that "off" is the default when in fact "any" is the default
and is descibed as being so lower in the file.
