Subject[PATCH v5 21/22] xip: Add reporting of major faults
Date
If we have to call get_block with the create argument set to 1, then
the filesystem almost certainly had to zero the block. which is an I/O,
which should be reported as a major fault.

Note that major faults on XIP files happen for different reasons than
major faults on non-XIP files. XIP files behave as if everything except
file holes is already cached. That's all the more reason to report
major faults when we do have to do I/O; it may be a valuable resource
for sysadmins trying to diagnose performance problems.
