Hmm, looks like we can directly assign to ret without any problems
in both functions, I'll change that for v2.

No I haven't abandoned that idea, I intend to have a separate patchset to go
on top of this one - just keeping them separate since they are conceptually
different. I'm converting each function to use struct vm_fault first, then
shifting it to be passed throughout as an arguement while cleaning up the
excess variables laying around. In a sense working bottom-up instead
of top-down.
