Alright then! I ll resubmit it!

That makes sense. But the code which uses atomic_pte_lookup uses the
return value of 1 for success and failure value of 0 in gru_vtop. That's
why I did not mess with the return values in this code. It would require
some change in the driver functionality which I am not ready to do :(

I ll be on the lookout!
