Subject[PATCH] xen/gntdev: do not set VM_PFNMAP
Date
Since when we are using the m2p_override it is not true anymore that the
mmap'ed area doesn't have corresponsing struct pages.

Removing the VM_PFNMAP flag makes get_user_pages work on the mmap'ed user vma.
An example test case would be using a Xen userspace block backend
(QDISK) on a file on NFS using O_DIRECT.

The patch should be backported back to 2.6.38.
