Hi Andrew. This is just a "nice to have" cleanup patch. Any chance on
getting it merged (lest I forget about it again)? Thanks.
While reading trough filemap_nopage() I found the 'return NULL'
statements a bit confusing since we already have two constants defined
for ->nopage error conditions. Since a NULL return value really means
NOPAGE_SIGBUS, just return that to make the code more readable.
