Amazing that this has never been noticed before - I bet not many people use RSS limits with madvise(). This transform the rlimit in pages before the comparison, can you please test it.

The fix is to add the forgotten state assignment. Patch from David Micon.

The problem is that when an app spans more than one L1 entry, we don't have all of the correct information, and do_page_fault() things a protection fault happened, when it didn't really. The fix for this is to modify the handlers slightly to force a TLB Error in this case.
