Mike maintained and contributed to the non-cooperative support of
userfaultfd (not documented yet in the manpage because not upstream
yet) and he also wrote from scratch the shmem support of userfaultfd
(also still queued for upstream merging). So I assume all information
in the manpage has been obtained by reading the kernel code of
userfaultfd.

Thanks,
Andrea
