Anyone object to my committing them, now that I can do that?  It's
pretty obvious that the code is wrong as is, and that my parens are
what was meant.


This will not, however, entirely fix the pm_stats; at the least,
they're not rolled back if the actual MMU update fails.

Furthermore, the wisdom of charging foreign pages against a user
process's locked-memory rlimit (as happens, and I believe it's
related) is questionable, although it did find a bug in libxc (which
I, um, kind of haven't fed upstream yet because it's tied up with some
other stuff whose correctness/sanity I wasn't (and am not) sure of).

Yet furthermore, pmap_remap_pages as it's used from userspace Needs
Help, and the conditions above would go away once that happens, but
that's beyond the scope of this post.
