This commit adds a description of the new mode, as well as the new ioctl used to resolve such faults. The two go hand-in-hand: one can't resolve a minor fault without continue, and continue can't be used to resolve any other kind of fault. This patch covers just the hugetlbfs implementation (in 5.13). Support for shmem is forthcoming, but as it has not yet made it into a kernel release candidate, it will be added in a future commit.
