Userspace MMU Notification

Userspace MMU Notification

During the .35 merge window I attempted to merge the ummunotify driver and
was told by Linus that he didn't like the approach.  At that point several
members of the RDMA community were hashing out a way to do the same thing
that would get Linus' blessing.  I haven't seen anything about it since and
I am curious if any decisions were made.

Thanks,

I am implementing a similar mechanism in the uverbs driver.  I hope to
have something done in time to review it for the 2.6.37 window.
