Hi, I read in the mailing list archive something like "Also the VM tends
to not consult the underlying object for a number of cases, the worst
one being that if a write fault occurs on a read-only page, the VM will
tend to add write access without asking the VFS if that is ok".

Can anyone explain for me the situation and whether it has been fixed or
not?

Any help is appreciated.
