The current implementation of the mincore(2) syscall sets errno to
EFAULT when the region identified by the first two parameters is
invalid.

This goes against the man page specification, where mincore(2) should
only fail with EFAULT when the third parameter is an invalid address;
and fail with ENOMEM when the checked region does not point to mapped
memory.

Please compile test at least, even if it is a trivial patch.

Whoops, sorry, I forgot to re-compile after fixing the checkpatch issues.

Ignore this patch, this was sent again by mistake.

Hi Franklin, thanks for the re-submission. Next time please send consecutive
versions as top-level threads instead of replies to previous versions, with
proper 'v2", "v3" tags in the subject.

Applied to -trivial, thanks!
