Souptick Joarder a953e7721f include/linux/hugetlb.h: convert to use vm_fault_t
kbuild produces the below warning:

This patch converts to return vm_fault_t type for hugetlb_fault() when
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=n.

Regarding the sparse warning, Luc said:

: This is the expected behaviour.  The constant 0 is magic regarding bitwise
: types but ({ ...; 0; }) is not, it is just an ordinary expression of type
: 'int'.
:
: So, IMHO, Souptick's patch is the right thing to do.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
