[PATCH] unpaged: ZERO_PAGE in VM_UNPAGED
It's strange enough to be looking out for anonymous pages in VM_UNPAGED areas, let's not insert the ZERO_PAGE there - though whether it would matter will depend on what we decide about ZERO_PAGE refcounting. But whereas do_anonymous_page may (exceptionally) be called on a VM_UNPAGED area, do_no_page should never be: just BUG_ON.
