[PATCH v6 05/10] userfaultfd/shmem: advertise shmem minor fault support

From: Axel Rasmussen
Date: Mon May 03 2021 - 14:08:22 EST


Now that the feature is fully implemented (the faulting path hooks exist
so userspace is notified, and the ioctl to resolve such faults is
available), advertise this as a supported feature.
