This series, currently based on 6.2, is divided into two parts:
- Commits 1-4 refactor userfaultfd ioctl code without behavior changes, with the main goal of improving consistency and reducing the number of function args. - Commit 5 adds UFFDIO_CONTINUE_MODE_WP.
The refactors are sorted by increasing controversial-ness, the idea being we could drop some of the refactors if they are deemed not worth it.
Changelog: v1->v2: refactor before adding the new flag, to avoid perpetuating messiness
