This isn't very useful unless functions that return the return value of
these functions, __dev_dax_{pmd,pud}_fault(), recast it as an int.
__dev_dax_pte_fault() would do the same thing, so it should logically also
be vm_fault_t, so then you would convert dev_dax_huge_fault() and
dev_dax_fault() as well in the same patch.
