Wow.  That's a really tiny window of opportunity.  vm_fault_object()
     is testing whether the page is dirty but it is still possible for
     the page to become dirty on a SMP system between that test and the
     call to vm_page_cache() due to a process running in user mode on
     a different cpu.
I will put a second test in after the vm_page_protect() call in
     vm_page_cache().
